JUNE 2020 Photo of the Month TIE BREAKER

As a result of the excellent caliber of entries, we had a three way tie in the June Photo of the Month competition!

As geography presents a significant obstacle to deciding a winner through fisticuffs or fencing, prepare to cast your vote among these three finalists (presented in random order):


Voting will be open for 7 days from today.

No? Very well then:JUNE 2020 TIE-BREAKER ROUND 2: ULTIMATE SMACK-DOWN

Of course I could be mistaken but I seem to remember seeing somewhere that if it was still a tie after a tie-breaker that both photos would then go into the Photo of the Year competition?
As I said, I could be wrong.

Oh... I believe you are correct.

Okay Rustygun,....you're on!
I'll preface this by saying that this "top trumps" is a new game to me.
That being said however, MAM (and myself) are always "up"...... (ahem ) for a challenge and you seem to have set the theme here.

Now I'm not at all sure I understand the rules  , but I'm pretty sure that a good old English stove pipe hat 
beats the hell out of a little German helmet anyday....yes?

.......I’ve heard Length is better than girth...So I proclaim you the winner..

Lestryge......top trumps was a seventies card game ( although I think they still make them now)
You had sets of cards with cars , tanks, footballers , or many other things and you trumped someone if you car had a better engine or top speed or if the footballer on your card had scored more goals than your opponents card ....
Riveting stuff..

...and I most graciously accept!  
In truth I consider myself fortunate to have one of my photos even compared favourably to one of yours. 

Thanks for the explanation of that top trumps game. Don't think it ever made it to Oz, or at least I never saw it.
Sounds as though it could spark off more than a few arguments, specially about the various cars.
The footballers would of course hardly rate in Australia as any interest here in British soccer is minimal at best.
