A Winning Year – Competitions Won

By Richard Randall @aude11360

It has been a very slow year for winning online competitions for me. February and March were dire months, with only a couple of very small wins. April was much better, and I did win some useful stuff.
I won a bottle of Villa Maria Riesling white wine. Not a big win, but one which will not go to waste.

Over the last two months I’ve won 2 DVD’s both of which are the same film. What are the chances of that I wonder? The DVD’s are of Night Train to Lisbon, starring Jeremy Irons.


I have also one a few books including:
Foot Sex of the Mind by Ian M Pindar.


Another book I won is OTMA 82-THE FIRST DAY: TRIAL AND RESURRECTION by Serge Jusyp.


Also to arrive was Proteus by Simon Hawkins.


Then a copy of The Oxford Illustrated History of the First World War by Hew Strachan arrived in the post.


A good result came on the 20th of April. A £150 giftcard for Primark. While it is not a shop that I’ve ever been to before, it is still a good win, and I got a lot of clothing which will be good for when I’m out walking the dog.

On the 22nd of April a DVD copy of Get On Up, The James Brown Story arrived in the post.


On the last day of April a copy of From Birmingham to Bombay by Alan Coxon arrived in the post.
