Best thing I've won is a VIP tour of the pit lane and McLaren F1 garage at the canadian gp. We were going to the race and entered, forgot about it and then found out we'd won it a few days before. Hype was through the roof. Such a great experience. We also separately won a tour of the McLaren technology centre, where I randomly bumped in to one of my uncles (he used to work there 3rd party, I didn't know).

Not much else I can remember really. I won an England cricket top through a vodafone competiton I didn't enter once :lol:

Xbox 360 slim in a raffle. Blu ray player with a region free firmware you could download, I eventually sold for over £100 :lol: (more than 360 with 30+ games)

Most expensive probably an IPad 2 I'm still using now. Also a raffle.

I've entered maybe 6 raffles in the past 10 years so I am extremely lucky.

I won tickets to see the Smashing Pumpkins in a small private concert in London for Xfm. It was pretty cool, it was like ten people with free beer.

And frazzles.

Titan Quest.

Excellent game.


I don't think I ever really played it.

Won my Game Boy from a packet of Quavers at a birthday party when I was 11, now the packet wasn’t mine it was discarded on the floor so I claimed it :shifty:

I also won Arrival from Cybertron on VHS when I was 6, we had a Beta Max though :(

He didn’t talk about strawberry floating anything.

He didn’t even dance for me.

Still, Frazzles.
