Thanks, everyone, for your kind words and funny comments. I'm so glad that James' caption was able to receive the recognition it deserved too, very worthy. And as always, thanks to Chris for all the work you do for us. Today begins a new month so we' --Vivvy En
Thanks everyone, you crazy bunch. You keep me sane, you really do. Thanks also to Chris - caption.me remains my favourite hang-out. And my gratitude also goes to Lizzie's dysfunctional family for providing us with excellent captioning material. --Vivvy En
Way hay! I'm starting to feel like a bit of a Captioneer now, need to work a bit on my consistency, lol. Thanks peeps, for all your votes and lovely comments. Thank you, Chris, for shining this here beacon of lightheartedness, where ... --Vivvy En
Big thanks to Chris and also for the kind words from my fellow caption addicts. I just love being a part of this crazy creative community :) --Vivvy En
Thanks to everyone for your kind comments and votes. I am reeling from the shock! To be in the captioners gallery is an accolade I truly never expected. I am honoured. A big thank you goes to Chris for providing this platform for us lovers of word... --Vivvy En
Haha, hope that didn't hurt too much, James. Yes, I did investigate the collective names for multiple penguins hoping for a fun word to p p p play with but, like Glad, choccie biscuits were on my mind too :)
I checked the collective names too Vivvy (as there's nothing worse than making smartarse comments that are completely wrong ) Interesting fact I learnt is that the name of a group of penguins changes depending on what they are doing. Standing around they're a colony, swimming they're a raft, and when walking they're a waddle. Sounds silly, but apparently it's true.
Sounds like we were on the same page, James. You made me wonder who decides on collective nouns because there are some corkers. That's an interesting read too. I love a Charm of goldfinches. A Crash of rhinos is funny. I once educated a Belgian friend of mine with a 'Parliament of owls', she thought that was a hoot. I settled on 'pack' because the children didn't win first prize, nor did they go to the fancy dress the following year because they were eaten on the way home.
What I am now wondering is what do we call a group of captioneers? (Respectful answers only, please). I'll go first, it's my game. A giggle...

I've always thought it a shame that a certain series of comedy films never had one about sewage workers persevering: Carry On Undeterred.

They look like they're dawdling. They need to p-p-p-pick up the pace.

A group of penguins should be called a Formal Dinner Party.

If it's a group of captioneers, I think we need an excruciating pun so I'll go for 'gaggle'.
