April 23rd is a very special day in England 
It's St. George's Day (Patron Saint of England) and it's the birth/death date of one of England's finest sons - William Shakespeare!
This lottery will be for a Shakespeare/St. George/England prize - a little package of bits and bobs to celebrate April 23rd. This prize will include a ToyVoyager bear - though possibly a "stay-at-homey", due to him being 'medium'-sized). More details - and pics to follow.
If you would like to be included in this Lottery, please sign up below, with your Lottery number (#1, #2, #3 and so forth) and two items of information (well, we've got to make you work a little bit, haven't we?  )
(a) The name of your favourite Shakespeare play (please, no repeats - there are plenty to go at - if you haven't got a favourite - shame on you! - put one that you've heard of)
(b) Your dream destination in England (this can be an area, a monument, or a city/town, as you wish)
This lottery will close on April 23rd, when the winning number will be drawn in a manner appropriate to the day.

There are many places in England where I'd like to go, e.g. Lizard peninsula. My friend saw some small sharks there while snorkeling.

I was going to say The Taming of the Shrew, but Aliah got it first, so I'll have to say "The Tempest" (based on seeing a cool statue of it in Central Park)
Ideal destination (and one I won't get to go to) Padstow, Cornwall, from where my hometown gets its name!
