First Prize in National Competition

I got a good sized cheque in the post today. It was for winning first prize in a national competition for entrepreneurs to come up with the best ways of improving going to the shops. I came up with a method which eliminates queues and solves a few other problems along the way. The ideas in the competition were reviewed by the management of one of Europe's largest shopping centres, who evidently know a thing or two about running a shopping centre. So, quite pleased about this and I'm free to sell it to anyone who is interested, if you are please mail me.
