    ESPRIT competition - BE WARNED!!!
    They are giving away vouchers today...just spent an hour finding something for a fiver (my voucher was for £5) only to be told at the point of Checkout that a minimum spend of £15 is required!!

    Not cool!! :mad:
    I personally have given up on this one a while ago. Without meaning to sound ungrateful, it just is not worth the trouble/waste of time x

    River Cottage phrase ~ any ideas yet?

    Still waiting for the last two letters but I think that the phrase maybe "Hugh Cooks Christmas" the last two letters need to be I and S for this to be correct :D

    Best of Luck :D

    That's what I was thinking but didn't want to sound stupid if everyone already knew or guessed :o :rotfl: or I thought it could be Hughs Christmas Cook but I agree Hugh Cooks Christmas is much more likely.

    Thanks Amilucky? :D Best of luck to you too :D

    Yes - if you scroll down on the calendar page it says:
    The winner will be the first person to tell us the correct answer for each day.

    I did their comp last year but this year can't be bothered to hover at my computer at midnight only to find the prize is some daft gadget :p

    Oh and by the way: Haribo 17th - the answer is NOT 5! I couldn't figure out what they meant by "country planets" and went for a random answer. Only allowed one entry so I wasted mine for today...
