Well, well, well. Did you enter? Do you think you’re in with a chance of winning? Read on for the results!

Okay, first things first:

Now that’s out of the way, let’s get down to business. Prior to the Big C, I gave you all the chance to win one or two prizes to mark the first New Year at Caught*Red-handed. I asked you to answer one of two questions, and also, to tell me your thoughts regarding what you believed was either the best, or the worst, thing about Japan.

There were some great responses, however unfortunately there were only two prizes on offer, so I must now reveal that the winners of the First Caught*Red-handed New Year Giveaway are:

As such, each of you will have been contacted via email today so that I can get mailing addresses etc, so look out for those and I’ll pop your prizes in the post! And for those of you who didn’t win, the correct answer to the questions asked were:

What was the name of John Blackthorne’s illicit lover in Shogun? Mariko
What is the most frequently used kanji in Japanese? 日

If the Arctic conditions are anywhere near as bad as they are here wherever you are, then please dig out your shovel, get on your hiking boots and attempt to make it through the blizzards to my next post, which will be the second, much anticipated instalment in my brand new 有名！series, so look out for that! Oh, and to keep bang up-to-date with all the latest goings on at C*R-h, don’t forget to follow me on Twitter!

Until next time, good luck with your New Year resolutions (I didn’t even bother) and I’ll see you all very soon. Catch ya!
