The drawn winner of TVLPP 389 is Tamara Brenner of Elmhurst, Illinois, USA. Congratulations!

From a bit further afield were Laura Bradford of Florida plus Trudy Merger & Carol Williams who went to Maine to escape the heat (Ha!), Tom Wilson of South Williamsport, Penn., Jay Miller of Pasadena, Calif., and Rich Pardoe of Houston, Texas. Neighbours in the Hat were Calfan Dary of Bali, Indonesia via Seville, Spain, Mark Roberts of Hostert, Luxembourg, Ian Simpson of Edinburgh, Scotland and from up and down England - Derek Harrison of Pegswood
