The 2024 Whiffie Awards Show

 

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the 2024 Whiffie Awards show.

We have another great show to share with you tonight. The quality of the nominated models is really outstanding and we heard from many members that making choices in the voting was very hard.

For all of you are coming out as winners, know that it is well deserved. For those who didn't win any prizes this year, know that in many cases the voting was very close.

This year we had a great voter turnout with some categories attracting more than 50 voters.

I would respectfully ask that members refrain from posting comments in this thread until after the show is finished.

Well, the food is served, the whisky is poured(at least mine is...), so without further ado, let's start with the first award.....
