There was a big entry to my Christmas quiz last month.

The winner is Mrs Kenya Quigley from Greystones in Co Wicklow. Congratulations, you win a two-day visit for two people to the Irish Whiskey Academy at Midleton Distillery in Cork, which is operated by Irish Distillers.

The participants' prize was won by Sandra Murdiff of Walkinstown in Dublin. She wins a Nokia Lumia 625 Smartphone donated by Vodafone.

Thank you all for taking the time to enter.
