[emmie]

on the lottery, betting on horses, dogs, magazine competitions, because i have come to the conclusion i'm just unlucky.

Nothing of any great value, a book on a teletext competition years ago and t-shirts
and posters from radio quiz phone-ins.

when I was 5 I won the Autumn Collection picture competition at school. I won a Ladybird book, "Tiptoes the mischievous kitten". it had a little certificate glued inside the cover. it's in my loft.

I won £5000 worth of home improvements on Clyde 1 radio station and I chose new windows about 5 years ago; and at the beginning of this year I won a 32" flat screen tv and digital recorder on Smooth Radio!

Yes ,with a young lad from the local youth club in 1958 I won a Rock and Roll competition. The prize was billed as being £25 vouchers each to spend in an up market store in town.
The prize, and the man detailed to purchase the vouchers was never seen again so we actually got sweet fanny adams lol.

On holiday 3 years ago we won £58 with 4 numbers on the lottery but nothing life changing....more's the pity.

When I was about 12 I won 50p first prize in a Womble drawing competition at school, and on holiday at Cayton Bay in about 1975 my number came up. Trouble was I'd gone to the sweetie counter and came in just as they said "last call for number 55." By the time I got to the stage they called out another number so someone else got my prize of a rugby ball.
I also won a lolly at the cinema at the Saturday matinee because I was sat in seat no. 12. It was one of those with all the bobbles on.

But, in 1992 I started entering slogan competitions and won lots of things. A dishwasher, a washing machine, a pocket TV, a Haven Holiday on any of their European sites (we went to Blue Dolphin!) a music centre, 3 Atari Lynx games consoles, a motor bike in the green and yellow "Appletise" livery, a mini tumble dryer, a luxury dolls house, a radio and lots more that I can't remember right now.

looks like i shall have to buy some of these mags, and get going.

I've won bits and pieces - my biggest win was a washing machine with a year's supply of Persil. I need to start going in for competitions seriously again, I used to really enjoy it!
