    Any more details on this, please? Is it a send-away offer? :confused:

    I asked this question too Manda' ... I intend to just take my email as i also received an email direct from The S Times to let me know about the offer ... so there is no need to buy if they send you the code and details via email anyway as they did me ...

    Don't forget the popcorn ... (I'd smuggle a hot dog or two in if I could) ... ;)
    We always do, luckily theres a morrisons (I know the shame;)) next door to cinema so we always pop in there first for popcorn and a bottle of drink. Then I make OH stick them up his sleeves (even in the height of summer he has to wear a coat) so he can take them into cinema!

    Thanks for letting me know about the email :D , so if OH does get questioned I'll tell him to say The Times sent him an email. Im sure they'll be fine though. I wish I could go too, it does look quite good. Instead I've gotta walk 18 miles over the weekend. Oh my poor feet! :rolleyes:

    Theres a walk "100miles for 9 smiles" taking place this week, in memory of the 9 Royal Anglians who died last year (my BIL was one of them). A mother of one the soldiers who died set it up and herself and other mums and soldiers are walking all of it. But me, my sister and brother are just doing sat and sun which is 18 miles from somewhere near bassingbourne to Duxford. Because of our children we couldnt do it all. Still a good stretch I think though! :D

    :beer: If anybody wishes to sponsor us that would be brilliant, but I didnt post ^post to get sponsors IYSWIM. All money raised goes to the Memorial fund, which although they now have more than enough for the memorial, any extra money goes to the families of the deceased and also to all the injured soldiers too.
