I've won !

[eddiebun]

I've just received some books in the post. The Collins English Dictionary and The Collins Thesaurus A-Z, so I've obviously some crossword or competition. But, I can't think for the life of me which competition, and I haven't seen my name in print anywhere.

Can anyone think which crossword/comp offers these prizes ?

Thanks in advance. Ed

[bridgenut]

Can't help you there but well done all the same . Congratulations !

[eddiebun]

Cheers ! I'd rather have the cash as I have a house full of dictionarys but it's still nice to win something and it is �55 worth of books.

[suzyangel]

sell them on eBay!!!!!

[eddiebun]

That's a thought . I don't have an account, but I have a friend who does.

GetOverIt, eddie has a house. It's full. Of dictionaries. No need for houseful.

[GetOverIt]

Sorry jno - I'm eddie - I was just correcting myself !

[beerbelly]

well done , Eddie .
Mail on Sunday Bare Bones perhaps ?

[jno]

duh... now I'm confuzzed. Congratulations, whoever you are!

[GetOverIt]

I just wanted a more interesting name !

I'm wondering whether its the Times Homograph puzzle.

[novalis]

Well done! It's always nice to see an ABer winning.

[Goofy]

sounds like the Times

[slaney]

Congratulations eddiebun/GetOverIt. Good to hear of wins.

Don't know how you manage to maintain two personas.. I have difficulty enough with just the one!

[kettledrum]

Unlikely to be the Times - they give their own books away as prizes.
I won a Collins Concise English Dictionary (in Colour!) recently from the Guardian. I thought I wasn't going to know where it came from, but found a small compliments slip amidst the packing. Perhaps mine was a runner up prize, and you've got the Thesaurus as well as the winner!

Congrats on the win eddie/getoverit you could always try Amazon to sell them as thay only charge when you sell the item and not if you don't. You just re-list after 60 days. Very easy to set up an account

well done eddiebun, do you remember quite a while ago you gave me a sight for movie posters? Well I won it thanks to you.

[ichkeria]

If you can't remember which comp, how on earth many do you enter?
Anyway, i hope it was all your own work :-)

[Everhelpful]

Congratulations,but I hope its not one of these scams where Items are sent without your knowledge and you get a Bill later on. A bit like Readers Digest used to do.

Well done eddie - hope your good fortune continues!
As bb said earlier, it sounds like you've won Bare Bones.
