    Well done! Totally agree with you and the other posters, these wins make living on a tight budget a little easier. I have had a few small wins this month and they are lovely as little treats, I think your metal is tested when you have a dry or lean run as a lot of people give up but I am a firm believer in everyone has a turn and you have to keep going for your turn to come - as yours has this month!!!

    So nice to see wins like this :)

    congratulations, it sounds as though the win will come in very handy. you cant beat it when somebody from MSE wins.
    I do it just for fun and whatever I win is a bonus
