Competition winner announcement!

Well, we got there… Half a million views. It feels like my little blog has gone a bit popular. Thank you all for popping along to have a read, a comment or a bit of banter on Twitter. It was very fitting to reach the magic 500k views last night as I had been invited to speak to Leicester CAMRA’s meeting about the Tapas Trail and working with independent pubs in the city, so it really felt like the things I am doing here, in the virtual world, are starting to spill out into actual reality and have a bit of a benefit.



So, you’ll be wanting to know who won my little competition, run thanks to the kind sponsorship of The Exchange (top notch house wine and pizza selection if you want my recommendation!). I have been over to Random.org to pick from the qualifying comments (adjudicated by The Boy to ensure scrupulous fairness) and the winners are as follows:

1st Place
A pizza party for two and 10% loyalty card
Comment 6 – Simon Lake

2nd Place
A gallon of beer or bottle of Prosecco and 10% loyalty card
Comment 10 – Paul Featherstone

Runners up (x3)
A coffee and a cake and 10% loyalty card
Comment 8 – Jo Bryan
Comment 11 – Mark
Comment 5 – Charlotte Gransden

Congratulations to all the winners – I hope you have a lovely time enjoying your prizes at Exchange. Just in time for Christmas. And I hope this sort of competition-based bribery means you will all keep reading the blog for another 500,000 pages!

    Lovely job, think I'll donate my coffee and cake to the missus. She loves that kind of thing, I'm more of a beer man. Thanks Laura, keep up the good work.
