    I am an active member of the DIBB, same user name as here - just in case you think I posted Foo's comp.

    I guess the users there thought there was no reason to stop them from been entered into Foo's draw, as they are aware that a lot of MSE people registered with DIBB just to enter the trip to Florida.

    Sorry, not trying to justify what happened and I did not ask to go in the draw, but just trying to say that we enter comps on othr forums and never post on them so it is the same thing.

    I will go and hide in the corner now before I get shouted at.


    That makes sense to me Kerri, and I dont think anyone thinks it was you either hun.
    Thanks to all posters and contributers :beer:

    I don't think anyones gonna shout at you ! No-one thinks it's you xx
    I just think that the difference is that the Florida comp was run by the dibb website.
    This gesture by foofighter was a generous offer to fellow mse'rs not a "competition". Many of us do this with tickets because we are grateful to all those who post the comps and if we can't use the prize like to offer it to other mse folk as a gesture.

  • Foo,

    Can't believe what's happened here - just logged on to see who the winner was and all this chaos!! I posted Guinness Rugby tickets on here as we couldn't make it and they went to a fellow MSE'r and my post wasn't deleted?????????

    It was a fabulous gesture and well worthy of P of the M - you have my vote anyway!

    Human kindness restored and my faith in MSE'rs remains intact - for the most part anyhow (lurkers, dibbers etc) but then - as stated- I think it was to be expected.

    Hope the winner has a smashing time and dare I say it - maybe buy Foo a gift to say thank you for their wonderful gesture????
