And talking of competitions, Sarah McIntyre decided to celebrate the 40th of June by holding her own competition - you have to draw a suitably extravagant moustache on this terrific portrait she's drawn. See Sarah's blog for details - and again, the deadline is Sunday evening (7 June). What a great idea!
The 40th June turned out to be a very successful day thanks to all the wonderful supporters and friends of The Rainbow Orchid. I don't know how many people sent out emails to tell their friends about the book (enormous thanks if you did), but I can mention some of the blog posts that I was alerted to - please give them all a visit and check out the rest of these wonderful sites...

I hope I haven't missed anyone out - please let me know if I have and I'll add it on. There were also some lovely comments and messages through Facebook and Twitter.
I must also share this brilliant piece of artwork by Simon Doyle with you. Thank you Simon - that's going straight up into the Readers' Art gallery (where you can also read the hilarious text that accompanies it).
