NorthernJambo Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I have never used this app. However I have unlimited texts so I look forward to becoming a millionaire by this means. I had the same thought. Unlimited texts, unlimited entries, unlimited monies. Then I minded the "fair use policy". What if the app goes beyond the policy and this money making scheme costs me money? Was this app made by Vodafone? Bet it was shysters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambomo Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I won a paint by numbers art set when I was 7. That's pretty bad, even for a 7 year old! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I won a Grampian TV car sticker when I was 5 for sending in a painting of a steam train. I was distinctly underwhelmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I actually won a copy of the Amiga game "Pushover" from a computer magazine...it had some sort of crossover with an Quavers. Thought I was the luckiest b*****d alive until I found out they were giving away something like 10,000 copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskychimp Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 The school fete tombola had a prize of non alcoholic wine. In a strange twist of the fate, it was won by our c**t of a local MP. Intentional pun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernJambo Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I won a match worn signed Dunfermline top, must be about 20 year ago now, some c**t McGroarty's top and I've no idea who all signed it. If anyone kens the lad McGroarty and he wants it back I'm open to offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggy Snake Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I won two tickets to Sonisphere Festival the first year it was held down south (Metallica and Linkin Park headlining). The gloss was taken off it a touch when I told my friends about it and they all entered the same competition I did, which was still running and all “won” tickets too. I think they gave away around 10,000 tickets in the end to boost the festivals numbers. I’d have been annoyed if I’d paid for tickets to it though, which I very nearly had done. Not sure about a worst prize but I was robbed of winning some chocolate on a school trip to Belgium. In a tackiest gift competition my postcard (a plain black postcard with “Brugge by night” written on it) came in second place to some plastic spoons with flowers on them. The winner was chosen by the teachers and shockingly it was one of them who entered the spoons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Won two tickets via McDonald's to see Czech Republic v Russia at Anfield at Euro '96. Superb game, 3-3 draw, stayed at the Adelphi hotel. My and my pal went out and got absolutely maracked in Liverpool, brilliant night, and he was literally reduced to crawling up the street back to the hotel. The doormen weren't going to let us in until I pointed out that "we live here" Also won a lovely bottle of Jura whisky in the Scotland on Sunday by correctly answering a Falkirk related question. Last summer I won a pile of brilliant vinyl releases by the newly reformed Music For Nations label. Problem was, I was away on holiday at the time, and missed their email until I got home. Tried explaining the situation; no dice. SEETHING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All downhill (everything is downhill when leaving the mighty Pars I hear you say) for him after that, playing for teams like Glenrothes, Forth Wanderers and St Mirren.

He certainly looks capable of carving a career in the juniors. The top might have number 30 on it (I've not seen it in years) so that could help give a timeframe?
