Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen! It's that time of year again, when everyone is finishing University and getting ready to move home, so I feel it's time for the first ever annual House Awards! (And no Wood, they're not worth any Live Achievement Points)
The House Awards are specialised awards designed, by me, for members of the 13 Parker Close household along with one extra special category for outsiders!
House Awards are brought to you in association with Clockwork Musings and, I suppose, JohnWoodUK
A full list of nominations are as follows:
Matthew Common
Shaun Kellett
Kim Lippitt
Laura Perkins
Bronwen Russel-Jones
John 'Woody' Wood
Luke Woods
So without any further adue, lets begin!

The 'Guys, I was so drunk last night' award for best drunk housemate
John Wood
Honourable Mention(s)
Matthew Common, Shaun Kellett, Luke Woods
Though there has been many a moment when a housemate has made himself look silly whilst drunk this year the achievement really goes to the John Wood for his excellent performance on the night of his 23rd Birthday. Though Luke Woods comes close with his recent display over the bathroom sink! Shall we have a bottle of wine now?
Matthew Common!
Honourable Mention(s)
John Wood
Housemates will know a little too well that not a day goes by when Matthew Common doesn't wake up and head straight for the bathroom to begin a 5 hour cleaning ritual in the shower. He has even been known to have two in one day!
The 'How many hits?' award for best website
Shaun Kellett
Not so Honourable Mention(s)
John Wood
It's no competition, half the housemates don't have websites, and Shaun Kelletts is obviously better!
The 'I'll do it tommorow' award for sheer bone idleness
Shaun Kellett
Honourable Mention(s)
John Wood
Whether its putting off Uni work, poor attendance, or simply not doing what needs to be done, the award goes to Shaun Kellett.
The 'Just one more level' award for housemate who spent the most time playing games.
John Wood
Honourable Mention(s)
Shaun Kellett
Though it could be considered a close one theres one housemate who just takes the lead. Be it for his 5 months straight playing time on WoW, his collection of almost 100 DS games, or simply playing Co-Op with his other housemates. Its John Wood!
The 'Knock before entering' award for housemate most likely to walk in on an embarassing moment.
Matthew Common
Honourable Mention(s)

Whether you’re getting changed, with a girl, or just plain in an embarrassing position, Matthew Common has to be the winner of this. This presenter alone has had Matthew Common walk in on a few of the worst situations.
The 'Man, I'm tired of singing" Award for most likely to be in a boy band.
Luke Woods!
Honourable Mention(s)
Matthew Common, Shaun Kellett, John Wood
Whether its his expert knowledge of Sound and Live event technology, his excellent recital of any musical, or just because he's Luke Woods, it just has to be Luke Woods to win this award.
The 'Mr Fixit' award for most apt at fixing house problems.
Luke Woods!
This was no competition. Whatever is broken, be it chair, table, cupboard or more Luke Woods is always there with a handy selection of tools to help make these problems go away. He even works after
The 'No Strings Attached' award for best single housemate.
Matthew Common
Honourable Mention(s)
Shaun Kellett & Luke Woods
It’s a hard one to judge. Three single housemates but only one title but in the end the award goes to Matthew Common for his many sneaks away on nights out and even sneakier MSN conversations. Single, and looking, get him while you can Ladies!
The “Oh Happy Days!” Award for happiest housemate.
Matthew Common
Honourable Mention(s)
Shaun Kellett, John Wood, & Luke Woods
Though each housemate has their happy days, and in turn also their off days the happiest housemate has got to be Matthew Common. Not known for throwing strops or starting arguments, whether its dancing in your door, singing in a high pitched manor, or just generally brandishing a smile, Matthew Common is named the Happiest Housemate.
The “Pass the map” Award for Messiest Housemate
Shaun Kellett
Whether its the state of his room, the fact he almost constantly leaves stuff in John Woods room, Shaun Kellett has to be the messiest housemate. At least in the other peoples rooms you can see the floor!
The ‘Turner What?’ Award for most artistic housemate
John Wood.
Honourable Mention(s)
Matthew Common & Shaun Kellett
A tough decision as 3 out of 4 housemates express creativity regularly; be it through writing, photography or film making. John Wood slipped ahead of the other housemates for his current work and dedication to his film “ImagiNoir”.
The 'Wakey Wakey!' award for person most likely to sleep in all day.
Shaun Kellett
Honourable Mention(s)
John Wood
It may be
The 'When I say X you say Y' award for person with the best catchphrases
Luke Woods
Whether a single phrase or a whole statement it was no competition that Luke Woods has, not only the largest amount, but the most catchy of catchphrases!
The 'Where exactly?' award for most foriegn housemate
John Wood
As all the other housemates are from the
The 'Wrinkly Chef Face' award for best cook.
John Wood!
Honourable Mention(s)
Luke Woods
Though two housemates have proven to be daring and inventive cooks John Wood sneaks ahead with his new found love of trying to cook something new and his bringing of cook books to the house.
And Last but not least:
The 'You might as well live here!" award for best frequent guest.
Bronwen Russel-Jones
Honourable Mention(s)
Laura Perkins, Kim Lippitt
The other two in the running were strong candidates indeed but Bronwen Russel-Jones just snuck in there recently. Though she may not have spent as many nights in the house as the other two, she did craft her own bed and she did bring chicken!
And there you have it folks! This concludes the 2009 House Awards for 13 Parker Close!
