@Mikegee You could argue that that floor is white, but we can't see a wall there at all. Sorry, try again please! (PS Don't use the [ img ] tags for instagram links, just post the link.)

I love this pic competition, so much fun previous years.

@jakub.zahumensky Given your background, we'd better believe you! Accepted.

6 entrants. Hooray, we are into prize territory! (and so the competition will continue.) We need 5 more entrants in the next 72 minutes to get a kendama into the prize pool too. Unlikely, but you never know...
