Socktober 2015. FREE SOCKS for all entrants. Win an i7 NUC from VeryPC


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hello everyone.

 

Sorry I've been conspicuously absent from the thread for a week. The VeryPC marketing/creative department have been up to our necks in custom branding jobs and preparing our first monthly "TAP Deals" eshot (which many of you probably received this morning actually - hope you liked it).

 

Don't you just hate it when real work gets in the way of real "work"?

 

Anyway, I'm all caught up now. Thanks everyone for joining us in this preambulatory stage. Thanks for the posts, the pics and urrr... the... prayers(?). Reading an interpretation of the Lord's prayer aimed at yourself is something of a uniquely strange experience, so thanks @sonofsanta for that one.

 

And we will now get down to the job of processing your PM entries too, so you'll get your acknowledgments soon.

False. I'm going to go with false.

 

As far as I am aware you are banned from all further Very PC competitions. I'm sure that was the case. We all voted and you weren't around to vote against us so you lost.

Ahhh memories!

 

That's Will dropping off a load of Socktober 2014 leftovers last Xmas so they can go to homeless shelters. We'll be doing the same this year, but no need to wait for Xmas, October is the month of socks after all (also beginning of the chilly season).

Count me in. Teachers are loving their new VeryPC laptops... Was even told by a Mac loving headteacher how great they looked!

Now that's good to hear! Thanks for sharing.

Al, that's fab. Please donate my socks to a good cause, and any potential Haribo too.

You'll get way more advertising from the homeless, the only 'people' that will see my shoeless feet here are the rats.

That's very kind @vikpaw

 

We will have enough to donate plenty to the homeless after sending all entrants their free pair (we intentionally over-ordered our expectations). You can get your pair and still be safe in the knowledge that lots are going to a good cause too.

 

So is it okay to still send you your free socks? I hate to think of my buddy not getting a pair of these awesome new Socktober 2015 socks.
