May Prize Money spending spree
Hi folks, as some of you may recall, I won the May contest with my Spring sonnet.
Pugalist has kindly forwarded me my prize voucher and I thought I'd share with you what I bought.
Two books:
Birthday Letters by Ted Hughes
The Collected Poems of Sylvia Plath
Some wonderful reading there I'm sure you'll agree.
What can I say, thanks, I'm really chuffed.
