Having subscribed to Farnell e-mail for offers etc., there was an e-mail earlier in the year. It was about a Winter quiz - I don't often enter, but gave it a shot. It was a multiple-choice quiz, rated by attempts or speed to answer correctly, plus a written answer to the final question (I can't recall how I answered!).
It was surprising to win a couple of really nice prizes. I wanted to thank Farnell and element14 for these gifts.
One of the prizes was a pair of Apple noise-canceling headphones, which is great because I lent my old Bose pair to a friend and never got them back! They are extremely helpful on flights, so now I'm looking forward to traveling again.
I also received a Multicomp dual soldering station with integrated heater tips and hot-tweezers, which is not pictured here since the box is currently unopened. It's a very decent soldering station, but by coincidence, I purchased a soldering station just last month. This prize will go to either a local school or (if they say they don't need it) an Amateur Radio group in Shropshire.
Thank you, Farnell and element14. It's a good reminder to subscribe and enter competitions.
