Does that count as a "win"?

I won a guess the weight of a cake here at work. 2,000 people had a go, I guessed it spot on and won 2.78 kilos of cake. Man I love the cake.

About 16 yrs ago, I won a flight in a hot air balloon. It was a phone in on the local radio, and my name was chosen.
Flew from Hereford race course and landed in the field next to the Three Counties Show ground Malvern. Same field where they did the Big Split!! Obviously not the same time as when VF was on.

Fantastic time...the balloon was red and advertised Maltesers!!

:lol:

I've won countless medals in athletics but that requires effort

I don't think I've won anything apart from the odd raffle prize

I won the pools when I was about 24. Nothing life changing though, and it's all gone now

I won a desk tidy once at school

and £10 on the lottery.....

that's about it. Pretty crap really.

Was it one of those plastic ones with tubes dif sizes next to each other??

Can't say I remember winning any competitions have had a few tenners on the snottery though.

The only time i watched live and kicking as a kid (always played footie or rugby) I entered the stick or prick and donna air won me a mega drive. I also got a diretors chair and 4 games :crazy:

I won a load of Mole Grips and stuff in about 1983, in the competition they ran every month in Practical Classics mag - you had to name the cars from the tail lights. They weren't much use to me really, being ten at the time

I also won a load of white label 12" records in about 1988 by entering a competition on Stu Allan's Key103 (or was it Picadilly back then?) Radio show, loads of old-skool rave stuff - K-Class "Wildlife" EP and stuff, they're all in the loft somewhere

That's all I can think of :lol:

I won a driving day at Thruxton in a raffle .. great fun !

Also won a fifty cent PS2 game on 6 music
