I won a Vango Nitestar 350 sleeping bag in 2012 but never had another win since then but it's the enjoyment of taking part approaching the festive season that counts. However, I still participate and contribute in support of UKCS and see it as a Christmas bonus if I'm one of the 24 winners in 2017.
Good luck to everyone that enters as your luck could just be in this year.

Oh yeah... there was a topic wasn't there!

I won 3 years ago (I think it was?).
A very nice dinner service, no less.
Colour coded to match our new green tent! Ha, Ha!

God's honest truth, I checked out all the daily prizes that year, and for us personally, we got the best/most appropriate/most practical/most usable prize on offer!
It couldn't have gone any better.

Unlike some of the above, I couldn't possibly accept another win this year, so soon after my last win, so I'll be donating it back to be re-drawn... maybe... possibly... depends...

Best o' luck, everyone!

Even though we're a week into November already, it is only 3 weeks away before the start of the advent calendar.

Love the advent calendar. We won a double air bed and 2 kids airbeds which served us very well. Unfortunately another nephew has come along, so here's hoping I can win another before I have to go out and buy one.

You can (and I have!) now register for the daily email reminders (To start from the 1st Dec, obvs!)

Let the battle... erm, sorry, I mean festivities... commence!

Soon be time for the emoticons to don their Santa hats, too, no doubt... Ooh... then there's the snowy background effect... and of course the bottle of Advocaat that Admin send to all UKCS members (or is that just me?).

I know it's not easy folks, but...

Yes, the Advent Calendar will be back this year!

Obviously it will launch in the 1st December, but in the meantime, you can sign up for an email reminder, so you don't miss the start!
