And The Winners Are…..

Winners and runners up named at the bottom of this post!
Scroll to the bottom if you cant contain your excitement!

So, I have never been late delivering a post, but of course on the biggest competition day I have technical difficulties and no internet access ALL day.
BUT I am here eventually and I am very excited to be posting this!

Let me refresh your memories as to what why and when this is all about.
In celebration of my 100th post I got a load of goodies in to give-away to my readers in a fun competition-y thing. I left the post up for 2 whole weeks and here we are.
The announcement we have all been waiting for!!!

I have made a video of the event for everyone to view and have included a little explanation in that too!

So what did I do;
I used a pizza box (frugal thinking) to make a circle enclosure.
I cut 8 holes for the 8 entrants in the sides and labelled each hole with an entrants name.
I then placed a hamster in the centre of the circle and let them explore.
Whichever hole they exited the enclosure via would be the winner!!

Simple and ingenious right?! ;D
Now as you will see from the video, I had a few problems getting Casper a certain white hamster to play fairly. After a dedicated 45 minutes, I disqualified this certain white hamster and used Eve instead. She played fairly.

I feel like I am not making much sense. Just watch the video!!
Please note it is hugely sped up in parts, making it very wobbley. I didnt want to cut any part out 😛
Scroll to the bottom to see the winners as quick as you can! ;D

Spoilers ahead! If you want to know the winners before watching the video click for more!! If not watch the video, GET THE POPCORN OUT!!

As you saw from the video, or cheekily read before watching, here are the winners.
1st Prize (winner of the prize bundle pictured to the right)

Hutch a Good Life
Congratulations my furry friends! After the sad news I heard only hours ago of the sad passing of Bingo, I really hope this will cheer you up. You were Dexter’s choice of winner and fittingly receive all his goodies :))
If you remember rightly, 1st place gets a choice of the notebooks (out of these two designs which would you prefer) and a choice of the keyrings (out of these two designs which two would you prefer). As for the rest, all of it is yours!!! 😀
I shall be in contact via email in the next day so all that is left is congratulations once again!!

Runner Up #1 

GoodGirlGlasgow
Congratulations my dear reader!! You were Eve’s choice of winner for one of the runners up prizes 😀 She kept it very tense right up till the last moment! Your prize will be a selection of postcards and a Hamster Diaries keyring. If I remember correctly your comment on the 100th post mentioned about how you wanted the keyring for your Heston, therefore I couldnt think of no better prize than this 🙂 I shall be in contact with yourself via email in the next day and congratulations once again! 😀

Runner Up #2

Quirky Books
Congratulations my lovely reader!! You weren’t quite Casper’s choice (as you can see from the video) as Casper’s choice was to do things the incredibly hard way 😛 However, Eve jumped into the rescue and she chose you for the 2nd runners up prize woohoo!! Your prize shall be a selection of postcards and a Hamster Diaries notebook. In your entry comment, I recall you saying how you are a writer and would make great use of a notepad and as Eves runner up choice I think it would be a most fitting gift! 😀 I shall be in contact with you also in the next day and again many congratulations!

Thank you everyone who entered as well as newly follow and read the blog! There may very well be more such give-aways in the future so keep your eyes peeled and keep on reading 😀 Thank you again!
I kept the draw as fair as possible and the video serves as my evidence 😀 I hope you enjoyed it and I hope the winners will enjoy their gifts 😀
