					<description>Hi Amy,
thanks for taking the time to comment - much appreciated.
I am going to be doing an article on this years 2009 contest - just waiting for the applications to close.

Thanks for the heads up about the two competitions. I assumed that the winner of MGT went on to be Miss GY - I've checked both sites out and it seems a little ambiguous as to what is actually happening.

Best of luck Amy and I hope to be featuring you soon 
All the best

					<description>i totally agree with you, with your comment on me being put on the front page if i was a &quot;thug&quot; its rediculous.!!!

im glad your supporting the girls who take part and i woudl like to wish the best of luck to any one who takes part in a beauty pageant and that they shoudl enjoy the experience and dont get to caught up and serious with it. takin part and havin fun is the best bit. if it was published like we keep sayin the experience woudl be a whole lot better.

once again thank you and keep up the good and positive work for all the girls.

					<description>Hi Jade
thanks for leaving a comment and welcome to the site, hope you'll return.
Great to hear from somebody who actually has taken part in the contests and I have to say I agree totally with you.

They could make a big deal of the whole thing in the Grimsby Telegraph and other local media outlets. It's something positive, a bit of fun does nobody any harm at all.
It's also very popular as many 1,000s of people have looked at these pages

What really annoys me Jade is that if you wore a hoodie instead of that red dress and threw a brick through a shop window they'd put you on the front page of the paper !
The local paper seems to wallow in misery and seems bent ona mission to portray only negative aspects of the town.

Hopefully next year will be better - I doubt it but we can only hope
I shall certainly be doing another feature on this site so I'll do my own bit.
Best of luck with everything Jade and hope to see you in the next one
All the best

					<description>hi.... like most people i am pleased tht there is aactually some one who is payin interest in something positive that is happenin in grimsby. 
i have taken part in the last two years and neither of them were publicised. i dont see how the public are ment to know wots going on to vote for the girls or for other girls to take part. 

i think it needs to be published in the paper for girls who dont know aboutit to take part. i also feel that there should be an event. i have taken part in a few beauty pageants in which i have done well in and they have all had a show. 

you get to meet the other girls to get to know them and also have a fun day and its a great experience unlike takin part in miss grimsby. it poorly organised and there nothin exciting to do whilst takin part other than gettin people to vote for you.

ther should be something for the girls to take part. even if u dont win or get placed u still have a great time and its an experience in which u will never forget and ive made lots of friends takin part in pageants.

there is also one more thing tht i think they should have and tht is a panel of judges. i dnt believe in the voting it should be traditional and you should have to prove yourself to judges. i took part in one pageant tht was exactly like tht , it envovled no voting and it was the best experience i have had. it felt less of a competition and more fun.

keep up the good work on supporting the girls who take part in competition.
thank you x</description>

					<description>Update:
there is no confirmation on the official site at the time of writing but according to their terms voting has closed and the final 5 with the most votes are:

&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.rodcollins.com/wordpress/sian-gissing-miss-grimsby-2008-winner&quot;&gt;Sian Gissing &lt;/a&gt; 	1129
Holly Pederson 	1101
Leoni Lane 	759
Casey Hubbard 	640
Jade Clay2	589

A great result and a good turn out, especially given the lack of publicity.
Congratulations to the five finalists and good luck in the finals
Regards

					<description>Hi Holly
thanks for taking the time to comment and welcome to the site, I hope you'll return.
I notice you're already doing very well in the public vote though it still seems like there is a lack of local support from the Evening Telegraph, I'm not aware that they've even featured it :(

Best of luck with the contest, keep us appraised, I reckon you're through to the next round ;)
Regards
