That aside, thanks to Allan, Barbara, Saphiya, Nic, Honor, and the others that sent me reviews for this month’s competition – your contributions are muchly appreciated!

But there can only be one winner, and this month it is…

Nic Steenhout! for his wonderfully in-depth review of the Matterhorn in Wellington.

Congrats Nic, and make sure you look out for our next iPod competition early in ’09 :)

You can win one right here on walkingisoverrated!

Throughout the month of September, everyone who sends me an “accessible review” will go into the draw to win a brand new, 4th-generation 8GB iPod Nano, in your choice of 9 vibrant colours!

You know the drill – send me a review of somewhere awesomely accessible – or perhaps not! – by the 30th of September, and I’ll choose the best one at the end of the month, and that lucky person will be the proud owner of a new iPod. Easy huh?!

Head on over to our competition page to find out more, or simply get reviewing, and flick me an email once you’re done!

Good luck!
