KIRTON DAD WINS GARAGE COMPETITION -
June 2011
A car lover from Kirton Lindsey has won £250 in high street vouchers from a Scunthorpe garage.
Accountant Rod Boyers, a regular customer at Halfords Autocentre on Glebe Road, entered the competition when he visited the Autocentre to have a new water cooler fitted on his Jaguar.
To his surprise, his entry - one of 10,000 entry forms distributed - was picked out in the prize draw.
Rod, who has two grown-up sons, said: “I was really pleased when I won, it was a nice surprise. There seems to be a lot of doom and gloom in the world at the moment, so this is something positive for a change.
“My wife has decided we need a new gas cooker, so the money has gone straight away!”
Craig Miotk, the manager at the Halfords Autocentre, said: “We were delighted when Rod won because he’s a nice bloke and a great customer.”
