Starting The Week With A Winner!


Good Morning & welcome to the results of the draw of Millie's 300th Game! give-away. The draw was conducted under totally uncontrolled circumstances here @ The Hedge last night.

Everyone who left a comment was eligible.

After an afternoon of slaving away in the Bathroom-From-Hell, MOTH went & had a shower for the occasion, donned his favourite Rugby top which just 'happened' to come from his mate Jason's Company Unicorn Brewery & poured himself a beer to prepare himself for the draw.


Hamming it for the camera as usual, he made sure he wasn't peeking as he fossicked around in the 'barrel'.

Yep, he's selected the Winner & it's............

  1. Oh Millie - I'm so excited. I don't think I've won anything since a pavement drawing competition when I was about 6, and even then I think I came 2nd! I think MOTH's lucky rugby jersey must have clinched the deal. Could he wear it when the All Blacks play next weekend?
    Thanks! Amanda xx

  2. Oh Mills, Amanda is so happy...I love it....she was a worthy winner.
    I think that I can see why you married your MOTH. A sense of humour in a man is very attractive and he looks a right laugh !!!!!
    Don't tell him I told you though...he might get big headed !!!!!

  4. So thrilled Amanda won, I'll have to sweet talk her into lending the book to me for a peak. Thanks to MOTH for joining in, he's very good at humouring the bloggers, and we love him for it.

  7. Delvene Delaney wouldn't get a look in against MOTH! Definitely games show potential - an new career perhaps, but Millie I guess you'd want the bathroom finished before he goes off chasing the bright lights of showbiz! Leigh
