On a winning streak!!!

I've had a fantastic couple of weeks prize-wise...

In the last few weeks, I have had arrive on my doorstep:

A double DVD copy of Raymond Briggs' 'the snowman & Father christmas' (in March!!!)
A Grand Theft Auto T-Shirt.
A tester bottle of davidoff cool water for women.
A Robots (the animated film) goody bag.
A Gillette M3 power razor (worth about £9)
and best of all... A copy of Football Manager 2006 for PC/Mac, accompanied by a branded in-car air freshener (fresh cut grass...allegedly), and a branded mini-mouse!!! Long may it continue!!!

As ever, all prizes that I have no use for, get given to a more grateful recipient. As I have no children (yet), we gave the 'Robots' goody bag to a young boy with muscular distrophy, who will get infinitely more enjoyment out of the prixe than I would. So I get the buzz of winning, and the satisfaction of helping out others. Nice one MSE!!!
