Anybody here good at, you know, stuff or junk?

I won the Toss the Wellie Boot competition at my sisters sports day and came second in the Midlothian Schools shotputt, the guy who beat me had a beard and we were only 15. I also one a darts competition in Ibiza once and a beer drinking competition the same night. Almost as good as Steve Redgrave eh? Nice one.

I should have won the Victorian Fancy Dress competition in the park behind my house when I was 7. I went as Darth Vadar though and the judges were too crusty to follow my radical interpretation of the rules. Darth Vadar would have kicked those victorian pussies asses! Biiiaaaaatch.

I should have won my very first show jumping competition. I was jumping the fences beautifully, but it was a shame that the horse wasnt. He stopped dead at each and every fence whilst I sailed over his neck landing the other side of the jump. Its still a big joke in my family and my dads got the cine film to prove it.

I used to get this comic called the big comic (mainly due to it being big and only 50p) and I entered one or two competitions and won them, I decided there was not many people who got that comic.

We also had a book week at school, and at the end of it I won a book, I cannot remember what I did to win it, maybe I wrote something and my spelling was brilliant

only on the second night, on the first you shattered the staying awake record by finally drifting off in the sauna when everyone else was getting up for breakfast.

Has nobody won anything truly craptacular? I used to love it on Bullseye when they top prize was a boat! Not going to look out of place at all alongside the estates burnt out Ford Cortinas is it!

I won a gallon of beer and £120 once. I also one an egg full of little black things.

(That last one is for chandler by the way ;) )
