Points mean prizes! Or not.

How come I never win prizes I actually want, but I win ones that give me almost exactly the opposite of what I'd want? Last time I won a raffle I got three cans of lager (I'm teetotal). This time I've won a signed copy of Fifty Shades of Grey!!!!! In a prize draw I didn't even know I'd entered via our local library.

Got to say, I'm pissing myself laughing here. Wonder if I could sell it on Ebay for a couple of quid.

Oy, lucky you. Makes me wonder about who might raffle that off. Probably not the Ladies Altar Society of Our Lady of Perpetual Consternation. Maybe the Parent Teacher Association for the Literacy fund drive since the high school librarian rejected it for reasons. Or the local animal shelter or kennel club with an extremely tacky comment about collars and leashes. One generation got Lady Chatterley's Lover and we have this....some day it will probably be required reading for some college lit class.
