Well, you know, my ancestry isn't all hamster.
I'm one-sixteenth wolf with, you know, a little wolverine in there somewhere.

I fired off an email to the Burnley Express and got a very nice and quick reply.
Apparently the part of the conversation I missed between saying "I keep losing the signal" and hearing the phone going down was them saying that since I was in York they would call again next week. I also got a letter from them this afternoon with confirmation of the win and contact details.
It turns out however that the presentation will be at the offices of the company providing the prizes, during working hours, which is just a little too far away and bad timing for me.
It looks like I will have to pass this one up so I've asked them to redraw the prize.
That seems a touch unfair
If the competition was advertised in a newspaper local to you, then it's not really on that you've got take yourself off to god knows where for a daft presentation!
Sorry you had to give this one up, lots of luck for your next win xxdon't blow out other people's candles to make your own burn brighter...0
