Free Giveaway To Celebrate Our 1st Blogging Birthday – Wooooo Hoooo

As promised we have a BRILLIANT celebratory giveaway in honour of our first year of blogging.  The lovely people at CSN Stores will be giving one of our lucky followers a £40 gift voucher to use in one of their online stores! They’ve got everything from lights to bakeware and cookware and furniture
Julian-Bowen-Digger-Bed Ciroa Miniamo Cupcakes Wire Tree %2F Stand for 13 Cakes
(Darrell fancies this digger bed, while I quite like the look of this cake stand, how wonderful would Mr Kipling's Fondant Fancies look on that!)
For a chance to win the £40 gift voucher just leave a comment on this post or for a couple of extra chances become a follower, or SPREAD the word about our giveaway on your blog and/or beyond……. for each option, please leave a separate comment on this post with a link to where you have posted about it. We've tried to keep it really simple so Darrell can help in the organisation.
Football Popcorn Maker
( We both fancy this football popcorn maker!)
The  winner will be drawn at ransom random by Darrell and me in the comfort of our kitchen. All names will be put into our big salad bowl. Darrell will be blindfolded and pick out the winner guided by my instructions (up, down, left a bit, right a bit, ...... plunge and pick!)  We will be watched over by a person of impecable character and good standing. Our invigilator of choice is Auntie Jan, as she used to be a Police Officer and helps with the Brownies. She will ensure that all procedures will be scrupulously followed to the letter.
Please leave your comments here by 11:59pm (GMT) on Monday 30th August …………how exciting and GOOD LUCK!!

I'm sure I can think of a way to get a gift sent to me. Monkey could sneak into the parcel and have another foreign holiday. Plenty of comments for this one I'm sure.

Monkey and Darrell

Every morning as I awake the first thing that I do,
Is check Monkey and Darrell's blog -
It gives me a laugh or two.

Those cute and clever monkeys have adventures by the score,
It's the one and only BRILLIANT blog which my family all adore.

It's my BLOG OF CHOICE a FORTUITOUS find,
It's clever great and good.
Those little monkeys' STYLISH ways definitely deserve a knighthood.

To win this prize would make my day,
But know if I don't win,
I'd still have Monkey's blog each day-
so I'd take it on the chin!

Lots of love from Jan the Fan x

I love to ready your blog each day Monkey - you never fail to make me smile and I treasure the lovely postcard that you sent to me last Christmas - in fact it is still up on my mantelpiece.

Have a fab first birthday - I hope you and Darrell get lots of cakes.

Hotmail message from Lesley

Hi Helen

I have a cake stand with a plastic lid that you can't see through, I make a 3 layer cake with mandarin oranges and cream, this cake stand would be fantastic to be able to see it without taking the lid off if I was lucky enough to win it? Thanks for the chance to win as I haven't got a blog. (yours is fantastic by the way, I look every day).

Luv Lesley
