MAD GIVEAWAY - WIN A FREE THING!!!

This is the hat but not me wearing it as I can't actually remember where the hat is.

I swore I'd never go in for social media 'like and subscribe, smash the like button. validate me please' type giveaways but then a Sunderland fan sent me a hat and so to celebrate last night's life defining 0-0 draw, I'm going to give it away. 

It's not that I don't like the hat or that it's an AFC Sunderland hat or owt like that. It's a great hat. It's just that the same fella had sent me exactly the same hat about a year before and I don't need two hats that are exactly the same cos I don't really wear bucket hats much so I'll probably not lose the one I have and having two hats you are only ever going to wear rarely in case you lose one just seems decadent, especially in times like these. 

It comes from a really good range of clothing (I'm no fashion guru but I like their shimmery colourful rain jacket smock type thing a lot, even if I'm more of a head down, plain black coat from last years range bought online at 65% off RRP type of fella) that he flogs online. It's the kind of thing that people who are into terrace fashion will like and the stuff is decent but is also a bit different from the same brands you seem recycled over and over at every game everywhere all of the time. There's a tagline for you. They can have that for free. 

You can't win this. It's just an example of stuff they sell. 

The lad who runs the clothing company is a good lad and hasn't asked me to do this and to be honest, if anyone asked me to promote owt, I'd tell them to fuck off cos what you write and tell people about should be genuine, not out of some sense of obligation. I also very much like their tangerine t-shirt I've got, even if they misguidedly refer to it as 'orange'

I don't want you to do owt except put your name and address in the form below if you want this hat and I'll use some kind of randomising internet magic and send the actual hat to whatever name comes out of the digital hat. 

There is only one hat and all decisions are final and if I forget to send it for a bit, you might have to remind me and also understand that I'm not sure where I put the hat, so it might take me a while to find it but eventually, if you win, you will get a hat.
