Did You Win A Tikka?

Did you write July's top product review and what about the 200th submission spot prize?

So did you win the Petzl Tikka for the best product review submitted to our new consumer review section over July?

Not if your name isn't Joan Collins you didn't. Joan actually submitted a clutch of informative, useful reviews, but we selected this test of the Patagonia Zephur jacket as our favourite review of the month.

Joan wins one of Petzl's innovative LED Tikka headtorches as well as the enormous cudos of being quite useful. Just goes to show, even mega-Hollywood film stars can find the time to contribute between mountaineering trips.

We also had a mystery prize for the 200th review submitted to the system regardless of the merit or otherwise of the review, and the winner was Graham Belsten for his review of, er, an MSR fuel bottle. 'Holds fuel, doesn't leak' was his succinct take on the bottle. And for his pains, Graham wins a selection of Wayfayer's camping meal including a couple of the sought after chocolate puds with chocolate sauce.

If Joan and Graham would like to drop me an e-mail with a postal address, we'll get the prizes sent out to you.

Meanwhile, there's another Tikka up for grabs for August's best product review and a spot prize for the 400th review, so if you haven't checked the system out, get over and have a look. The more people contribute, the more useful it gets.
