finally, I draw names from a hat
I’ve decided it’s about time to announce some winners. Who has won what? I’m not sure what I promised, or what people want (I am distressingly vague today) so if your name is on the list, email me and we can work it out. That way everyone gets something they like. In fact, if you have a mad-keen preference from the various odds and sods I offered, say so in the email. If you don’t email me, I’ll assume you don’t like anything and will let fall a single tear for your sorrowful state of mind.
Congratulations to:
Judy Kennedy
Satima Flavell
Alyson Hill
Llyn (who has already received her prizes!)
John Lampard
Email me by Monday, if you can (and email me with a postal address even if I already have it), so that I can go to the post office next week: it is my great desire to make the post office lady very, very confused and I have three parcels to send already, which means all I need is preferences and mailing address and four lucky (or unlucky) readers can be added to my goal of confusion. If I don’t hear from you by the time I get to the post office (Wednesday in my timezone), be prepared with an outstanding excuse for lack of email, otherwise I’ll just assume you don’t want your little parcel. (This is a test to make sure you all actually read my blog and are not vaguely following keywords like ‘contest’ over the internet.)
Anyone who didn’t comment, sorry, it’s too late. You’ll have to wait till I decide to give something away again.
And we’re back to normal programming. I’m not travelling for weeks and weeks and weeks and so I have time to think about the important things in life, like the history of ingredients and how we train our tastebuds. I can also introduce you to all those books murmuring just behind my right elbow. Which means that, in a few weeks, I will be able to tidy my desk. Woohoo!!

Oh Bugger! My life and clumsiness got in the way of my interweb use for a while, and now I’ve missed the fun…saw you at Farmers a while ago, but my hair had been cut short and I’d had one too many people unrecognising me. It’s too early to drink.

You’re in luck - I managed to become far too busy and still haven’t been to the post office. If you read this soon, then ring me (see phone book for details) and we can arrange a prize. And coffee, since we both need it, I think.

Crikey you’re quick! We do need coffee…and I need ice…for my knee. I can’t even remember what the prizes were - I just love getting things in the letterbox. I’m not going to grow up and no-one’s going to make me.
