20 Photos Every Comper Needs

Entering competitions - 'comping' - is one of my favourite hobbies. Sharing a relevant photo on social media is a standard entry method these days, but luckily the requirements tend to be pretty standard too. You can take a picture now and carry on using it for years to come.

They don't need to be anything amazing, either. Cute and quirky help, of course, but your phone camera will be fine for the vast majority of competitions.

So, read on for 20 photos every comper needs...

#1. Whatever the Weather

Sun, Snow, Rainbows... Weather photo comps are used to promote everything from sunscreen to wellies.

#2. DIY Disaster

#3. Your Pet

Some competitions are animal specific, others will just ask for snaps of any pet. Either way, a suitably photogenic pic of your four legged (or otherwise!) friend is essential.

Dog Photo

#4. Halloween Costumes

World Book Day is another costume photo bonanza, so depending on costume you might even hit two birds with one stone.

#5. Baking

We're still feeling the influence of the Great British Bake Off; a snap showcasing your baking skills is a regular ask.

#6. Summer Holidays

#7. Easter Bonnet

Or other Easter themed creations!

#8. Landscape

A versatile view or two will serve you well.

#9. Christmas Tree

A bookcase snap is always handy to have, but other nice interior shots can also be useful.

British Food

A/N: On a previous blog wrote a whole series of posts on British life, explained for American fiction writers. This week I'm reposting the entry explaining British cuisine... Britain is world renowned for its stodgy, uninspiring cuisine. (Which should explain the deep suspicion Britons have of most foreign cuisine, unless it's been suitably adapted for the British palette.) BBC sitcom Goodness Gracious Me explains it best via the 'going for an English' sketch - a play on the popular British past time of 'going for an Indian (i.e. curry)'. " What's the blandest thing on the menu? " asks one character, later encouraging another, " Just have something a little bland, huh? Waiter, what have you got that is not totally tasteless? " Because, the truth is that traditional British fare is far from a taste sensation for those who haven't been raised on the stuff. Still, read on, and you can judge for yourself... Breakfast The be

Simply Cook Review

I kept seeing ads and deals for Simply Cook everywhere, so as there was a special offer on at OhMyDosh! Rewards (£3 for the box and £3.50 cashback) I figured I had nothing to lose by giving it a try. What Is It? Recipe kits packed into boxes which fit through your letterbox. The usual price is £9.99 for a kit of 4, with each one serving 2-4 people depending on your serving sizes. All you need to do is buy the fresh ingredients required and follow the instructions. Here is Simply Cook's own helpful diagram: Does It Work? For me, as the person just eating it, it was awesome. Everything tasted great - the mushroom penne in particular was so good I went back for seconds - and I liked that the sauces weren't as rich as Anthony would usually make them. For Anthony, who cooked them, they weren't as impressive. He complained that the food was bland and that it was actually quite a lot of faff, as Lidl didn't stock everything we needed which meant another trip ou
