We'll be featuring a selection of our favourite suggestions for today's picture in tomorrow's paper.

At the end of the week, we'll also choose our favourite of the daily winners to receive a case of 24 bottles of Corona lager. So what are you waiting for, think of something funny. . .

Yesterday's winner.."Keep smiling Nicola but Annabelle Goldie has just lapped us!"
Euan Gregor, Edinburgh

And the runners-up are..

Nicola to Shona: "That's the trouble with this job – I'm always run off my feet."
Ken Wilkinson, Hull

"When I agreed to run for office, this wasn't what I had in mind."
A Friend of Fernando Poo

"How come Alex gets to sit amongst girls with pom-poms for HIS caption comp photo, and we have to do THIS?!?"
Skip McClendon
