You always assume that nobody really wins these things, until you do!
Agreed! And I can assure you that even when you've found out you've won, you still never quite believe it! Even now, I think I'm dreaming a bit!
Wow!! Well done. What a result, as long as you don't start preaching about giving way to your sails now!!!
I've been practising my disapproving arm waving technique ready for you lot to go tearing on past!
Is this the hint about a change that could be interpreted from earlier posts, well done we look forward to bouncing you in our wake!
Yep - I found out a little while ago, and although there wasn't an embargo on me telling people, I dodn't want to rain on PBO's parade... afterall, they had just spent four years doing up a boat that they've given me for free (well - for the cost of a couple of pints and a pub lunch on handover day).
The crazy thing is though (which you can read about in the PBO article), the week I found out I'd won, we'd decided to sell the Fletcher anyway. Not because we wanted to, but it we knew we'd never want to sell her, and we'd have to make the tough decision sometime. In the meantime, we planned to spend the summer on the water in school boats, learning to sail, before buying a mid-twenty foot yacht. Some would say pure good luck, others would say fate!
) as I only do either lottery on BIG wins and £11mil's not enough 
. SO Following Annas win I immediately entered the Absolute radio £29k leap year give away. LUCK IS INTHE AIR - somewhere.
