Status – At BeoWorld HQ – ready for the Fabulous Spring Draw.
Prizes : All in front of me, beautifully wrapped, and ready to send anywhere on Planet Earth.
Prize Draw Starts : In just under 30 minutes at 8pm UK Time
It's only a quarter of an hour until I pour myself a glass of whatever I can lay my hands on and wave it in the general direction of my screen to signal the start of the 'BeoWorld Spring 2020 Prize Draw'.
Yes, it's that time again - and how quickly has it come around?! Sadly most of us are now confined to our homes to listen to our B&O Music Systems, watch our B&O TV's and.. hey.. hang on.. what's bad about that?!!
Anyway, put down whatever you're doing, wash your hands, rub sanitiser all over the cat, anti-bac your significant other, then wash your hands again - I'm all ready to bring my finger down on the freshly wiped over and sterilised prize draw button, thus bestowing some Fabulous Prizes upon some Lucky Winners… BeoWorld.. far too generous I tell you every time!!
So – you’ve got 15 minutes to get the jobs done… go, go, GO !!!
Get the kettle on, crack open a beer, pour a glass of wine, wash your hands again, put on your lucky undergarments, then definitely wash your hands again, then wave at all your neighbours from your window (but not wearing just your lucky undergarments) .. I don't know why I bother saying these things - nobody ever reads them.. 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 Christmas Draw Winners tonight?? Chances are, you are..
Anyone fancy a lovely BeoWorld Prize? Botty is here in your very own BeoWorld HQ and is ready to distribute a large pile of Prizes worldwide. It's that time again when you all think to yourselves 'How do they manage to do it?' whilst you look at the prizes being given away. Well, i've no idea - really. It's beyond my comprehension but you lovely lot seem to enjoy it, so why question!
For £2.50 a Month, YOU can win any of these - not once, but FOUR times a year. You'll also be supporting the best site on the internet too !!
Back in a few moments - I'm just going to apply some titanium shine to my plating...

Okay Ladies and Gentlemen.. THE BeoWorld Spring 2020 Prize Draw will now start, right here and now! Good to see you all, and may your Lucky Charms be with you all - or at least ten of you.
And we're off....
10th Prize - The BeoWorld Reading Time Bundle!
In 10th Place we have a little 'Book Set' in the form of the absolute novel which is the Bang & Olufsen 'Spark to Icon'. A postman's back breaking slab of a book charting Bang & Olufsen from inception to present day on the 80th Anniversary of the company at time of press (2005). In addition to this we're going to include a fabulous book called "Danish Loudspeakers - 100 Years" - celebrating (you guessed it) Danish Loudspeakers from 1915-2015. A fascinating book including a historical article on the importance of loudspeaker directivity at Bang & Olufsen. A great little book-bundle to read and enjoy as the Winter nights approach.
Tonights first winner is..
Mr K. Tehrani (Beoplastic) from New York, USA
Very nice too - well done and Happy Reading!!
Foxtrott: beocool: Maybe PDB watched groundhog day? Could be... then we would have another draw tomorrow evening... not a bad idea
Congrats Beoplastic. I have both these books and they are lovely
PrizeDrawBot: Certainly feels like it... I'm all alone this evening. Well done for spotting the deliberate mistake!
Well, what do you expect from someone who went to law school at the university.... we are always looking for the loophole
congrats Beoplastic.... enjoy the reading
9th Prize - A Genuine Vintage Kaye Bojesen Soldier
Another one from our miniature battalion.. Here we have a Genuine 1970's 'B&O Dealer Issue' Royal Danish Guard wooden soldier! An absolutely beautiful little collectible which genuinely looks great on an shelf or worktop in the vicinity of your lovely Bang & Olufsen products! In 1922, Bojesen began designing wooden toys, typically about six to ten inches tall, with moveable limbs. These included a teak and limba monkey (1951), an oak elephant, a bear made of oak and maple, a rocking horse of beech, a parrot, a dachshund, and toy soldiers of the Danish Royal Guard. Here we have one of those soldiers - just waiting for a new home! All yours if you win 9th..
The winner is…
Mr J. Struiksma (Tignum) from Bolsward, Netherlands
Jolly well done to you - What a lovely Prize. A piece of Danish design history for you to look after..
Congrats Beoplastic! Now lets keep this USA winner thing on a roll!

8th Prize - A rare Genuine Vintage Dealer Display Sign
Another B&O Rarity.. We found one of these a few years ago, and now we've got another! Here we have a genuine and original 'Bang & Olufsen Official Dealer Issue' spray painted steel "Hand Print" Bang & Olufsen branded signs. These are from the golden era (80's / 90's) of Bang & Olufsen Dealerships and these signs were actually extremely expensive to buy for the dealers as they cost so much to make! If you're a B&O collector this is something you'll absolutely love to own - and if not, this could be the start of a great collection!
The winner is...
Mr G. Griebel (Griebel) from Essone, France
What a great prize for the avid BeoCollector who wants something a little different!!
Félcitations Griebel.... un superbe object d'art pour la collection
Well done, Griebel. That's a nice piece of B&O history
7th Prize - B&O Matchbox Vintage Delivery Van
In Seventh is the highly collectible Matchbox Bang & Olufsen Delivery Van! Given out as Dealer Gifts to VIP clients back in the 1980's they have become quite the collectors classic, both from the Bang & Olufsen perspective and the toy car collector too! One for the display cabinet, and a real keeper - and something we're sure you'll park in your miniature garage and take out only on high days and holidays. It's pretty good on fuel, too!! All yours if you win 7th...
The Winner is...
Mr L. Fischmann (lass) from Hørsholm, Denmark
Could this be the start of a classic car collection?
Congrats on the new set of wheels, Lass
