• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

I'm giving just one week to enter the Fabulous February Challenge (well, it's a shorter month, and I'm a bust person). As the love-month slips by, the challenge is to include the word "cherish" (plural and past tense also acceptable) in your one perfect sentence.

The rules are simple:

  • Each entry must be ONE sentence only, as defined by the basic rules of English grammar. We will notice if you squeeze unrelated clauses together and pretend it's a sentence, so please don't do it. Your entry will be disqualified and removed.
  • Don’t comment on other people's entries – this makes the thread far less readable. If you’d like to make a general comment – or if you have a question – then please do so in this Café Life thread under the “One Perfect Sentence” prefix. I will keep checking the thread to answer any questions. If you have a question you don't want others to read, please private message me directly.
  • You can make as many entries as you want to, but only your entry with the greatest number of votes will win a place (and Litbits).
  • IMPORTANT: You MUST make your entry anonymous by ticking the “Posting as Anonymous?” box. Entries that don’t do this will be removed.
Voting will open later this month. But don't do it here. Head over to the One Perfect Sentence (OPS) forum and post your entries there.
