Being a Cheeky Cockney won me . . .

Tickets to see Keane in Manchester on Jan 31st!
Hubby & I went away last weekend for his birthday (last chance before baby comes) and on Sunday morning, driving from Blackpool to Hull for the Hammers game, we tuned into local radio station The Rock.
They had a comp, where they read out lyrics & you had to say if they were from a Keane song or not - I figured you gotta be in it to win it, so got on the blower when they gave the number out & got on air!
To cut a long story short, using my bestest Cheeky Cockney accent, I managed to blag a pair of tickets to the Keane Gig in Manchester on 31st Jan (2 weeks before baby is due) and according to the presenter 'probably annoyed the locals now!'.
Woohoo - I love local radio comps!

He he - thanks you lot - just a shame West Ham lost 1-0 to Hull City that day & we were sitting with ALL the Hull fans! Ahhh well - they were really nice & I got a pic taken with Rory, their mascot!!!
If I EVER work out how to post them, I'll put it on here!
Thanks again
