This is a question Winning

I once won a gas boiler from The Guardian. Tell us about times you've won, and the excellent and/or crappy prizes you've lifted.

Reet...
I won a set of roller skates when I was about 8 in a competition in Look-In. First prize was a Raleigh Chopper. By the time the skates turned up (I didn't even know I'd won, they just turned up) they were too small.

I won an electric carving knife in a raffle. 6 months later, I won an electric carving knife in a raffle...

I won £16000 on 'Who Wants To Sit In A Fucking Freezing Studio Asking Questions Put To You By The Bloke Who Did Tiswas In A Futile Attempt To Win A Million Pounds'. I didn't know the answer to the £32000 question so I bailed out and got looted by my kids at Christmas.

That's it really.

Ooh, almost forgot. I won a 'Carter USM' CD autographed by Mark Goodybags on his Radio 1 show about 17 years ago, I think it was a 'Guess the year' type thing. About 4 days later, I told one of the lads I worked with the answers to that day's question and he won summat too.

I'm fucked if I know
where they are, it was somewhere around 20 years ago. 'Millionaire' was in 2001 but I have a scan of the cheque somewhere cos Barclays, the wankers, were supposed to send it back to me after 6 months but they lost it.

Every now and then, someone collars me in a shop and says 'I saw you on telly last night' because Challenge TV keep re-running it. I don't get repeat fees though.

My ex probably has them
and she'll have used them to cut up some kittens or babies.

Pics?

Of her cutting up kittens?

We could meld them with my ex-wifes album of her mugging Big Issue sellers as they "deserve to be poor"
