    I have been trying to win things for Christmas for years and have failed miserably so far. I cannot seem to win anything for my kids or books, but I will keep trying.

    So fare I have:
    A box of Krispy Kremes (If the voucher will still be valid. Still waiting for it to arrive.) - A treat for one of the festive days. If I don't use it for my Birthday before that.

    Luckily this year, Christmas seems to be sorted for me.


    Having won fewer prizes earlier in the year, I decided to back off a little and enter fewer competitions.


    Last Friday there was a call on my mobile, and when they asked my name I thought it was a scam, asking who they were. When the caller said Radio City, I wondered whether it was about the competitions they had been running that week.


    I had won £2000 cash! It had be collected from St John's Tower at Liverpool, as the prize was in notes. What a day that was! This week I received £500 cheque from Jambo's Soduko posts. I didn't post the Radio City win as I won from elsewhere.


    Am sharing with my family, and we've started Christmas already!
