And for us Bl**dy foreigners we just have to come up, with something in our native language and translate that to the proper English proverb??
That exercise might be tougher as the actual picture taking.

You could always challenge the English speakers with a Dutch (or Danish) proverb! Give Lilly something to think about

Aesop is translated into many languages, for those who don't speak classical Greek.
Actually, I have found that a great many sayings in English have exact counterparts in Polish and Czech, and no doubt in most other European languages.
So being a Nederlander is no excuse!

I am sure that Lilly has not altered the closing time

It's obviously been programmed to stop entries once judging begins - having made the false assumption that judging will not commence until after the cut-off time.
One more for the list!
