There was that chap who won the Granturismo who popped on here. Blue one....Think he sold it straight away or maybe took the cash alternative. Can't remember as it was some time ago.

Chap I worked with bought some fancy socks and was entered into a competition to win a car some years back.
About 6 months later he was contacted to say he had won. He did indeed receive a brand new car. Can't remember what sort of car it was but something like a Skoda Favorit

Never one anything like a car before but an old colleague of mine won a small hatchback in a raffle at the cardinals ball in Glasgow, five years later, small ball, won another one !!

Well, what a surprise, the chap presenting the prize has his weekend cottage next door to me, can't stand him, nor can most of the village, they have moved in permanently during the crisis, (against government advice) yet he still f***s off back to work during the week, which has gone down really well with the locals,

As the saying goes ,you gotta be in it to win it , odds have got to be better than the lottery ,

My Godmother's youngest son entered one of those Best of the Best competitions at Heathrow and won a 911 Turbo, so someone has to win these things.......
