Daniel Temm  - Winner !

My Final Plea

 

Now i know the competition doesn't close until Sunday night or sunday midday for me but im going to Rugby and wont be back till after the voting closes and we cant post after that! :( so im putting up my final plea for Marmite to send me home!

First of all i will say my thank yous! Thank you to Marmite for a pretty amazingly choice competition! its been great fun! and has defanitely ruled my life for the past two weeks! constanty checking votes and comments! trying to think up original ideas in my plight to try get a flight! im now looking forward to a pretty nervous fourteen days while you decide who the lucky ones are. Secondly thank you to the voters! a huge thankyou to all the people who have come and clicked the vote button! many of you took time out of your lives to vote every day! the buttons been clicked 1143 times! and a few more times wouldn't hurt! haha thank you for all your wonderful, touching and supportive comments that have been left on a daily basis! Now thirdly thank you to my amazing mates who have truely gone the extra mile with there creative edge! you know who you are! the photos. videos! songs and ideas are all credit to you guys! so churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! i cant explain what its been like for me after having not seen you guys for long! to see you do stuff like that! and some people i haven't even met yet! people have left comments saying i have the best mates and i truely do! you guys are all heroes! and hopefully i can say thank you and catch up with you in person soon!

i haven't really got anything to say to seperate me from all the other great kiwis on here! so am not going to try beat around the bush and sob myself a ticket! Going home to see friends and family over this festive time would truely mean more to me than anything and would be the best christmas present i will have ever got! if not chosen ill wear it on the chin and i hope the winners have a safe journey back to the promise land and have an awesome time seeing your family and friends you clearly deserve the ticket! been awesome to nosey on all of your pages!

That is all from me!

Love form Daniel Temm!

Rap Lyrics

 

As requested the mighty rap lyrics!!!


Jordan Canning 28 October at 08:39 Report
Heyyy Marmite, thought I’d try with the mic,
Can’t sleep at night, so I’m tryna get my mate a flight,
He’s out of site like a runaway kite,
Causing fights on the nights, that his mates buy vegemite!

Ha, and I no he has lots of fans,
Coz as a mate there’s no one better, so we call him fam,
But damn, with the kitchen all spic and span,
It’s hard not to miss the boy called DAN!
Now with his body gone O SO long,
Only one guess at what spread that he lathers on,
STRONG! Heart racing like the beat of a song,
HES STOKED! like the monkey when he found the girl in King Kong?!

HA, and with the map in his haaaands,
Endless amounts of places make the list include the sands,
OF ITALY,
(And that one, and yea that one too, oh and that.. ha ha ha).....

Big pause in the song, but if you made me read them all it would be twice as long!,

Still looking for the plane thats has “to Auckland” on,
Make the whole of Vegas roar when the first seat is gone!

SO, Take off 100, make it 99,
Coz if you’re judging on calibre, Dan is twice as high! Coz I tell you I’m shy! but this is what I’d do for the guy! Coz the more he stays away man the more that i sigh!

But Sometimes in mad times man I do wonder why; why the future is nigh,
All the words I said to the guy, were they really divine?
Was I ever never to kind? When it was you and I,
Chilling playing games all night

Yea, Great times that we shed!
I know you like that mar-mite,
So let’s get up in his head!

As Dan reaches for the bread,
Whips out the black gold,
“two steps. Just bread and spread!”

HA, and I know he would love it,
The kiwi boy in England that’s repping stubbies in public!

I bet he gets lots of looks all around, like,
“who’s that really tall boy? And wasn’t he brown?”
SO, come on Marmite and stay his number one,
And get him home for the summer so he can see a bit of sun!

And we know he was the one who chose to liiiive it, UP
And we know that he’s really good at criiiiicket, BUT
We just want him home so we can have a biiiiit of, FUN
And eat more Marmite than we’ve eeeeeeever done!

HA, and as the year is about to end,
There’s no where he’d rather BE than with family and friends!

So come on, please bring back Mr Temm!
Everyone at home misses him, times.....10!

If you havent seen it its on the you tube marmite channel! Titled Marmite Rap!

Big ups to Jordan Canning and his friends! and thyeve relly gone the extra mile here! with some very creative lyrics and digi camera and a laptop! cheers boys!

Dan lives with me and my girlfriends, all he eats is kit kat chunkys, baked beans and marmite on toast. The lad deserves to be repaid by the people of marmite to fly him back home. Preferably one way! Seriously, send him home.

dear marmite, this kid daniel temm has been my mate since we were kidergarteners, jackson park kindergarten in rotorua, since then wev never been to far apart from each other, or our marmite, especially not over the summer breaks. That is until dan got the calling to spread his wings and see the world of course. This will be the first new years without him for about 13 years, please dont let 13 be the unlucky number which breaks this wonderful tradition and bring him home to be with his friends over xmas and new years, we love this kiwi and we would truly appreciate it. Thanx heaps! yours sincerely shawn gielen

KIA ORA im Dan from the smelly town of Rotorua. I cam over to England in Feburary on a cricket contract and to experience to see the other side of the world and what it has to offer! crickets finished and i picked up a rugby contract so have to stick out the cold winter but would love to come home for xmas and new years to see family and friends! and see some sun because there wasnt any here this summer! i think im a great candidate because im your average kiwi on the other side of the world repping the stubbies I also wake up every morning eat 4 slices of heavily marmited toast and 10 weetbix! because as a kid mum always told me i should eat it instead of vegies because i will grower taller and stronger! and boom! now im 6 foot 6! vote for me because ill cry black marmite tears if you dont!

I reckon if I had been able to get home more often I would have stayed. So, good luck to you. It's easy to get used to this cold... Here's my last vote of the day from Natalie Green's team.

Sure, you may have 100,000 facebook friends to vote for you but it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re on the plane. It’s a quality, then quantity rule round here. We’ll be making our decision based on originality and creativity, how well your entry fits with the values of the Marmite brand, then popularity.
