This is for the weigh-in of the heaviest pumpkin 2011. Here are a few rules (Borrowed from previous threads):

1. The heaviest pumpkin is the winner and it's grower will receive a small prize (not sure what or how we will go about this for now but will keep you posted).
2. The pumpkin you enter must have been grown and cared for by you.
3. You are allowed to enter a pumpkin on behalf of your child or grandchild.
4. The pumpkin must be photographed and the picture with weight information either posted on this thread or via another web link together or if you can not..(see 5.)
5. This is a light-hearted competition and we are relying on 100% honesty, so no cheating!
6. Even if you don't think you'll win, please post a photo and the weight of your pumpkin, we'd all like to see everyone's efforts.
7. Closing date: 31st October 2006
