I've had quite a morning! I regularly listen to the Danny Wallace XFM Breakfast show and sometimes text in to enter the on air competitions. To my amazement this morning my phone started ringing and the next thing I am on air taking part in a head to head quiz to win a HD TV, an Xbox 360 and a copy of the game Dead or Alive 5. Thankfully I was first to buzz in on the first two questions and scooped the prizes! I was then offered the chance to gamble the prizes to win an additional £500, not sure what came over me but I went for it and thankfully knew the answer! My capability to remember tons of useless celebrity information finally coming in handy!!
Still can't believe it, never won a prize like this before! Just have to patiently wait for them to arrive now as the game isn't out until the end of the month! Great timing to as our TV's on the blink and the money can go towards a well needed short break! :j
