You have Queensday in Sweden Ferdinand?
Brengen & Ophalen
It's the BeoWorld April 2012 Prize Draw in 15 Minutes – so clip the top off a beer bottle with your teeth, flick a peanut in the air and catch in your left nostril for later - then look lively! You don’t want to miss the draw do you? Yes – YOU !!
I'm sitting bolt upright, beer in hand, excited - and waiting to slam dunk my fingertips on the button, thus bestowing stunningly brilliant goodies upon some lucky winners… BeoWorld.. far too generous I tell you. In fact, i tell you every month!
So – you’ve got just under 15 minutes to get the jobs done… go, go, GO !!!
Leslie: You have Queensday in Sweden Ferdinand?
It's rather King's day here - it's his birthday! :)
It's also what we call Valborgsmässoafton, during which we burn large fires and stuff: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walpurgis_Night#Sweden
Get the kettle on, crack open a beer, pour a glass of wine, paint your tiny Toyota with mascara and call it an 'Eye-Go' if you so wish.. sell your trousers to science, then walk backwards to the North Pole…
Whatever.. the draw is imminent - hurry up !!.
I’ve just drawn the names and matched them up to the Prizes – so could YOU be one of our lucky winners tonight?? Chances are, you are..
Hey everybody!! I'm here, good luck!
Beo4 'til I die!

Ready, Rum and coke, ice cold, outside temp 28 C, roll the dice, good luck everyone
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.
Okay Ladies and Gentlemen.. a draw will now start, right here and now! I'm absolutely thrilled to see so many people here tonight in order to see me, Botty, giving out all these wonderful prizes. WHAT? You're here for the prizes and not ME ? Well, at least you're honest.
Anyway….
10th Prize - A BeoWorld garment of your choice!
Take your pick of one of ANY of our BeoWorld short sleeved Yves Saint Laurent T-Shirts or long sleeved sweatshirts from our gift shop. Look smart and stylish this summer with the BeoWorld logo adorning your tanned, muscular chest etc etc - or just cover up the pounds gained over the winter months with something stylish. Your call !!
Tonights first winner is..
Mr R. Eriksson (rikarde) from Stockholm, Sweden
Very nice - and very smart !!
Hello all and congrats to Rikarde
If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.

A popular day over here as well, the only celebration when people actually go out on the streets to make noise - it's way too cold on new year's eve and during midsummer most folks like to be by themselves at the summer houses etc!

9th Prize - Bang & Olufsen (The Crowood Collectors Series)
Here we have THE reference book for B&O. Written (and specially hand signed) by BeoWorld's friends Nick and Tim Jarman (owners of the brilliant Beocentral website) this book introduces the world of Bang & Olufsen, from the futuristic audio and hi-fi systems to the elegant television sets and attractive portable models which have captivated enthusiasts for the best part of four decades.
As we all know, Bang & Olufsen have striven to design items that stand the test of time, being both technologically innovative and stylish - so find out 'the ones to have' and 'the ones to avoid' as far as collecting goes in this very book!
The winner is…
Mr T. Maurice (TerryM) from Southend-on-Sea, UK
Jolly well done to you - Happy reading!
Nice one Ricarde !
A very god book apparently, still haven't got one. Well done Terry

Well done rikarde and Mr. T!
8th Prize - Wedgwood Coffee and Cream Set
8th Prize this month is another 'can't buy in the shops' special, which no doubt you're getting used to here on BeoWorld.. So, first of all we have a pair of genuine bone china Wedgwood Coffee Mugs of the very highest quality. These were Official Dealer issue only and are absolutely gorgeous. However, for those who take coffee with cream we can't have you pouring out of any old jug - so how about a matching Wedgwood bone china cream jug? Yes, you can have one of these too!
The Winner is...
Mr S-M Forsgren (sveifors) from Sjovegan, Norway
Well done, and happy coffee drinking !!

7th Prize - A BeoWorld Beo-Book Bonanza!
The evenings are getting lighter, so it's time to sit and read in the evening instead of watching TV !!! First off you'll want to read 'Spark to Icon' - the definitive B&O reference book with more pages than the Beijing Telephone Directory to wade through. This ought to give you a grounding of all the products B&O have ever made. After that, it's the world famous B&O Collectors book by Nick and Tim Jarman (Signed by the authors, of course) where you can discover the true classics and collectibles. Finally, after a nap, you'll wake up hungry - so we've thrown in the collectible recipe book by world famous chef Raymond Blanc, written especially for Bang & Olufsen. Phew - what a Prize!! (Reading glasses not supplied..)
The winner is...
Mr J. Svensson (Krona) from Skane, Sweden
Put on those reading glasses, get the wine chilled - and happy reading !!
Sweden again. congratulations Krona
Ah, another Swede! Great! Congratulations! :)

6th Prize - B&O Spark to Icon Book + Bonus
Sixth Prize this month is the definitive Bang & Olufsen reference book charting the history and progress of the company from the 1920's up to present day. Great reading, and extremely interesting - the ultimate ex-dealer display coffee table accessory (as long as you have a very strong coffee table - these are huge!) for Bang & Olufsen lovers.
These will be collectors items in the future.. A great prize for any Bang & Olufsen lover which will give hours of informative reading. Plus.. we have an extra little bonus to throw in for the winner!
Mr M. Gay (MaxG) from Plymouth, UK
Congratulations from all at BeoWorld! What a lovely book.. and what might the little mystery prize be.. a reinforced coffee table perhaps ??

5th Prize - Collectors Bang & Olufsen A4 Wave CD Rack
You cannot buy these any more, and rarely do they come up on the used market.. So, what if we told you we had a NOS (new, old stock) A4 Wave CD Rack. This is the even rarer 'A4 Large' version, made from a single piece of Aluminium and a capacity to hold up to 24 CD's - although you can hold whatever you like on it! Even empty, the A4 CD rack is a work of art and is highly prized by Bang & Olufsen collectors worldwide. As fresh as the day it left Struer almost 10 years ago.. A surefire appreciating asset to keep and cherish. Only BeoWorld offers Prizes like this..
Mr G. Taylor (GarryNT) from Beecroft, Australia
What a lovely prize - happy listening!
