Won something but collect in London?

I've won a soundtrack CD to the film Black Book but on my winning email it says:

'Please ask at the box office at
Curzon Soho to claim your prize, thanks for entering!'

Oh dear, disaster. That's quite a little way from Cheshire. lol. Do you think it would be cheeky to ask if they could post it to me? I don't know what to do. :confused:

    Not cheeky at all! But maybe there's more to the prize - like tickets to the film and they missed them off the email or something like that.

    Hope you get it though. Well done!!
    If you have nothing constructive to say just move along.

    It could be an error, if they were doing lots of letters for ticket wins and moved on to runners up - its worth asking!
