You have to search their catalogues and count how many times Bobbie the Budgie appears. Irritatingly, I have the same problem as last time in that I cannot view the catalogues properly online! :mad:

Squoozy

Well I'm completely confused. There are lots of budgies but I'm not very good at telling them apart so I don't know how many times I've actually seen Bobbie (except that he definatley appears on page 90 wearing a t shirt), I think I've seem him 10 times, but maybe its a trick question since its only definately Bobbie in the t shirt.

My head hurt so I went away to make a cuppa - when I saw Bobbie looking in a mirrorr I didn't know if that was a 1 or a 2?

I made it: 26

1. Front Cover
2. Page 3
3. Page 7 (On the lamp - it looks like two but the other is a reflection)
4. Page 8 (In hair of woman)
5. Page 9 (Behind vase)
6. Page 11 (In hair Machine)
7. Page 13. (tiny one above & to left of blue headress wearing model)
8. Page 19 (On arm of chair)
9. Page 54 (By milk bottle)
10. Page 59 (At top of left hand curtain)
11. Page 73 (In tree)
12. Page 74 (Behind rabbit)
13. Page 77 (in tree)
14. Page 90
15. Page 92 (top left)
16. Page 95 (top right)
17. Page 103 (in car window)
18. Page 105 (on plant)
19. Page 109 (on fire hydrant)
20. Page 116 (top right of bottom left pic)
21. Page 121 (in window)
22. Page 123 (middle pic at bottom)
23. Page 124
24. Page 126 (right of pic)
25. Page 130
26. Back Cover

I don't think any of the cartoon budgies (Page 22-43) have the same markngs as Bobbie

I'm not sure about a second Bobbie on page 54, there looks like one in the painting, but not sure whether it has the right markings, or is a painting and as such doesn't count?

I have just received the paper copy of the catalogue today and will double check when I have a spare few minutes

Gemsie

You've done a terrific job using that hopeless online catalogue! I'm very impressed!!! I've used the paper catalogue and I think I've spotted one that you didn't get.

1. Front cover: Is this one or two?
2. Page 3
3. Page 7 (On the lamp - it looks like two but the other is a reflection) But does this count as two?
4. Page 8 (In hair of woman)
5. Page 9 (Behind vase)
6. Page 11 (In hair Machine)
7. Page 13. (tiny one above & to left of blue headress wearing model)
8. Page 19 (On arm of chair)
9. Page 54 (By milk bottle)
There's also a little one balancing on angel child's finger. I think this is supposed to be him.
10. Page 59 (At top of left hand curtain)
11. Page 73 (In tree)
12. Page 74 (Behind rabbit)
13. Page 77 (in tree)
14. Page 90
15. Page 92 (top left)
16. Page 95 (top right)
Page 101- on the man's knee
17. Page 103 (in car window)
18. Page 105 (on plant)
19. Page 109 (on fire hydrant)
20. Page 116 (top right of bottom left pic)
21. Page 121 (in window)
22. Page 123 (middle pic at bottom)
23. Page 124
24. Page 126 (right of pic)
25. Page 130
26. Back Cover


So, it's either 27 if we're disregarding the one in the painting and the reflections or 30 with the reflections and the painting one?

All it says is how many times Bobbie appears. Ambiguous and I'm unsure which the correct answer is!

rwgray

I don't understand where you are looking!? The comp page says to use the men catalogue http://www.whitestuff.com/catalogue_men.asp and the women catalogue http://www.whitestuff.com/catalogue_women.asp which has for instance budgies on p.22 not mentioned in your lists above. What catalogue are you using? Oh dear... Rich.x

Gemsie

I've just sent you a message rwgray then the minute I pressed send realised what you meant! You've spotted the cartoon budgies rather than Bobbie. He's quite well hidden- use the pages we've posted above and have a proper look at the pictures. He's tiny and very well hidden.

I believe that Coversnail is correct in stating that they don't think the cartoon budgies are meant to be Bobbie (none have a yellow head, etc). The online catalogues are exactly the same as my paper one, except I can actually read the paper one! Can't believe Coversnail managed to find all of those from that ridiculous site!

Hi,

This is in the T&Cs:

(The front and back pages of the catalogue are included when counting Bobbie but no reflections or illustrations are included)

So are we agreed on a final number? Is this for the female, male or both (together) catalogues? (the T&Cs don't seem to say anything about this point!!)

Sorry, I don't have the answer, just another question!
The Bobbie on the competition cover page only has 3 spots on each cheek, but some of the Bobbie's listed above have lots, eg. page 90 with the T-shirt on, so are they meant to be the same?
I can't see some of the small ones on-line so I've ordered the catalogue to get a better look.

how amny are we going for then??
