I won tickets to a concert at the milton keynes bowl, good night out as well.
I still get flashbacks (!) over the firework display during the 1812. Due to the slope of the site, the audience were mostly somewhat higher than the launch point and many of the carefully designed pyrotechnics were still burning when they reached the upper sections. It was like a Tokyo fire raid in 1945. That bloke putting out the fire on his picnic blanket with a nonchalant splurge from his Thermos really was Mr Cool.

But the best bit was the magnificent aerobatic display by the starlings.
Rather like this.

An iPod Shuffle, a CD album: p!nk - I'm not Dead and £10 on the lottery on my birthday last year, from the lottery ticket my mum put in the card.

That's pretty much all I've ever won. It's all groovy.

I'm struggling to think if i've ever won anything. I'm not really one for competitions.

Oh no I won a Kona Bear DX from MBUK once. Nice £1800 bike, limited edition too. Then the pikeys arrived in town and it mysteriously vanished. And then so did they. Thick f**ks probably didn't even know what they'd stolen. Essentially ended my interest in downhill riding, and subsequently I stopped. Reckon I could have gone pro too if i'd have carried on, I raced in many many events on my trusty Kona back in the day.

Really nice prize though all the same – 2002 delux model in chrome

"downhill riding"? is that a fancy name for free-wheeling? lol.. or an antonym for uphill gardening? :teef:
