I won something!

I didn't win the Venn diagram competition, but the letter I wrote to the newspaper won the Courier Mail's "letter of the month" competition for October.

I still haven't actually seen it in print but my parents have cut it out of the paper, as I thought they would do, so they might send it to me. There was a little spiel saying I had won in the letters to the editor column of yesterday's paper. I missed that too, because I didn't bother buying the paper (even though I usually do get the Saturday one). I thought yesterday's headline looked a bit dull.

So I have won a "leather compendium" valued at $80. Not sure exactly what that is. I might go and google it.
