Money Observer's Investor of the Year competition 05/06

I'd forgotten all about this (after tinkering with my portfolio almost every day in the early days). And today I get an email telling me I've won the monthly prize for January (by 0.02%)!
A quick check on the site and the league table looks like this:
1 Pink Fluffy Dice £30,582.76
2 paul gray £25,526.62
3 Bristol League £22,524.46
4 Mr Tops £22,410.15
5 rnunn £20,644.42
6 CHRISTMAS STOCKING £20,169.10
7 Ashley House £19,660.86
8 imonskag £19,531.85
9 Cladger Nallocks £19,451.81
10 homer and marge £18,989.01
Not a bad month, I thought. Then I realised that that's the overall table! 7 weeks to go, a 20% lead and £10k to play for... stress, stress, pressure!!

No plans for the cash although I've had one offer to elope on a world cruise. Any other suggestions?

Turning a profit of over 400% on one company and then holding on to win despite losing nearly half of that gain!!!
(Apologies for the nasty, cynical and probably miles from the truth interpretation of the article )
The article quoted me 3 times, and got 2 of them wrong! The rise I experienced on CSH was 248%. What the article didn't say (because I didn't tell them) was that I'd forgotten I was in the competition
