Not my win...

Apologies if this shouldn't be posted here but it made me laugh so I thought I would share...
I've had a couple of good wins recently so my Mum has been inspired to start comping again. She's far, far luckier than me so I wasn't suprised when she called me to say she had won something. I asked her what it was and she said she had chosen an ipod because she wanted something to listen to music on. Oh, lucky her I thought but then she went on to say what the choice of prizes was an ipod, a dvd player or... er... £500. She was delighted and I didn't have the hear to tell her! :rotfl:

Bless her. Still I would like to win an iPod so it's still a good prize (personally given the choice I would have taken the cash though
). Thanks to everyone who posts comps, I love winning prizes big and small

Well done your mum :T:T"We all change when you think about it. We're all different all through our lives. And that's okay, that's good. You've got to keeping moving. As long as you remember all the people that you used to be." - The Doctor0
