    My first prize I won a potato bag from Mcains in Novemember!
    Fortunately, my prizes have got better including my most recent win -the FA cup is coming to my house today, for an hour! We've invited lots of friends and neighbours to come and look at it - so it should be fun, if not slightly surreal!
    Better get on with the tidying, it's like having the Queen visit!

    After the then prerequisite Rexel stapler and Faith voucher, my first proper win was a Poirot DVD game back in November :D Given my appalling luck over the last couple of months, I'd give anything to one day return to those heady heights... ;)
    Wins: Jan-Sept:£1991.27, Nov: "The Rough Guide to the iPhone" book, "FWD this link" book ... £12.98 :cool:
    Win £2008 in 2008 number 60, only £3.75 to go! (it is highly likely I'll win absolutely nothing else now this year! ;))
