Results of the Bonkers milestone giveaway!

Source: bugloaf.com

So last night's deadline for the giveaway to mark the occasion of my 400th post and 150th follower is past, and I compiled a list of all the readers who had left a comment.

Then, in time-honoured fashion, I had recourse to that virtual bouncy ball number generating machine that is Random.org and can announce that the winner is No 3:

UNDINA

Congratulations, Undina!

Do please get in touch to discuss whether anything from my list appeals, or if not, what selection of samples or other decant might hit the spot.

Oh, and I must just share this post-it note with you, which I left on my desk last night as a reminder to myself about the giveaway. It rather suggests that I am not such a whizz at spelling as I like to think...

Vanessa said...: I will PM you, Undina, to find out your prize leanings!; 8 September 2013 at 19:27
Vanessa said...: Hi Tara,

Haha - it really tickled me, I must say. I have even started to see rogue possessive apostrophes creeping in when I write 'its', but so far I have caught them in time. And some of that is Siri's predictive grammar. ;-); 8 September 2013 at 19:29

Vanessa said...: Hi thesmellyvagabond,

Thanks a lot and I totally understand about life getting in the way when it comes to blogging - I am in a mad busy phase myself at the moment. :-); 17 September 2013 at 22:36

About me

I am an independent market researcher, specialising in industrial product sectors, who was struck down in early 2008 by 'sudden onset perfume mania'. 18 months later I took up blogging as a family-friendly outlet for the oddball ramblings prompted by this newfound interest in fragrance - and by my travels generally.

I was a finalist in The Fragrance Foundation's 2015 Jasmine Awards with an entry entitled: "Men and (wet) sheds: dipping into The Library of Fragrance in a focus group down the pub".
