Pick the right 24-hour shop and you can sit for hours people watching, something those who like a late night guilty pleasure from a Corner Bakery will know well.

Of course that’s not the best part of grabbing a treat from them – that would be the R1 000 cash reward for entering our Corner Bakery competition.

We’ve told you about this one too many times to count, so no crying when we also tell you this month’s cash prize will be the last.

So who snapped the winning picture for the month of July? Someone with a slippery tongue, it seems.

This winning entry from a man named Basil, who was rather to the point:

This is my snake Lucy. She also digs Corner Bakery. I like to call this the Snake and Kydney Pie.

I prefer the Pepper Snake myself, but I guess everyone has their own favourite.

What a lovely snake you have Basil – here’s hoping R1 000 brings much happiness to you and your snake companion.

Thanks to everyone who entered this competition, it’s been fun sifting through them on this side, and thanks to Corner Bakery for providing all that prize dough.
