What's this about?
We've blagged 50 copies of 101 Things to do Before you go Abroad for MoneySavers planning a staycation in Blighty. The book isn't available to buy, but you can download the list from the Visit England website.

If you're interested, just reply to this (click on 'post reply') and say:
"I heart the UK"
To do this you need to be registered for the Forum (if you're not, when you click reply you'll be taken through the process. It's free, of course).APPEAL: Please ONLY reply to this thread if you will check your private messages to see if you've won a copy NEXT week (commencing 20 May). If you don't get in contact promptly you won't receive a copy and if there are any remaining books they'll be given away.
But bear in mind 150 names are being picked and there are only 50 books (because sadly not everyone gets in touch, so doing it this way helps to speed up the administration process), so you'll have to get in quick.
Also, please DON'T email in, as your name won't be counted. Nor include your contact details in this thread as, for your own safety, we don't allow personal details on the public forum so your post may be deleted.
This giveaway appears in the weekly email (if you don't already get the email go to www.moneysavingexpert.com/tips) and will close at 10am on Mon 20 May, so please get your posts in before then.

The book's blurb ...
"This handy little book covers the best of the very best English experiences as selected by a panel of experts. From drinking proper cider in a Herefordshire orchard to climbing the country’s highest peak, these recommendations will remind you of the fabulous range of experiences only available right here on your doorstep.
101 Things to do Before you go Abroad is divided into six themes, guaranteed to get you out and about in England
• Food & Drink
• History & Heritage
• Arts & Culture
• Wildlife & Nature
• Health & Fitness
• Because It’s Awesome"

How will the people be chosen?
50 people will be picked at random (we've a special little computer programme to do it) and a private message will be sent to each of their winning usernames requesting their USERNAME, FULL NAME and ADDRESS details (there'll be an email address to send this information to, we don't want it done via private messages).
The FIRST 50 people to get back to me will win a copy of the book.
The giveaway has a strict one entry per household policy and entries can be deemed ineligible without any explanation or notification.
When will I get the book?
The publisher providing these books will send them out directly though, to aid administration, this won't happen until all 50 winners have provided their name and address. So it may take several weeks between the giveaway's end and actual receipt. This thread will be updated to let winners know when they have been sent out.
