David over at Life’s Prologue (a darn good read if you’ve never visited) has been talking about the call of the wild and his family’s annual camping trip.
I wrote in the comments that I would prefer a few nights in 5 star luxury rather than sleeping under the stars. Unfortunately, as I pointed out, our budget doesn’t really run that far.
After that exchange I got a call yesterday afternoon (as I was trying to sleep off my sore throat) to tell me that I’d won 3rd prize in a competition I’d entered the day before at WA on Show.
The prize is 2 nights away at a local resort. I won’t say anymore at the moment. I want to see the paperwork. I know that ‘3rd prize’ is often their code for ‘buy something huge and we’ll throw in something samll for nothing’.
I think this one is for real and we could certainly do with it. I’ll tell you more once the letter arrives.

Thanks for the kind words. I hope you are feeling better and I hope the prize is for real. You deserve it.
