    If you're lucky enough not to have a fixed IP then good luck to you :D but be warned, the 6 month rule if you win from Absolute is for any member of your household AND family including Cousins, Aunts and Uncles so if any of them have won you're not eligable. They contacted me again today after my query about entering with some very interesting information, it seems like they have a super-duper IT guy and the system knows when someone isn't eligible to win and won't pick them until they are, so they told me to sign up and if my name appears I'm allowed to claim :j:j if they know this about previous winners they are probably hot on IP's and addresses too ;)
    That ain't working! That's the way to do it, money for nothing and TV's for free ;)

    True, but on last year's experience, the first time they did wrist bands instead of tickets, once winners had received them there was nothing to stop them giving them away if they wanted to, as there was no ID on the band or on the barcode printed on the band.

    hope that'll be ok :o
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    Should be hun, as I say once they are recieved by the winner there is nothing on them to say who bought/won them. Last year I know a few people who won some and gave them to other people, for example if a single person wins 4 tickets, there's no rule as to who the other 3 are given to. I won two standard tickets last year and then both my daughter and another friend won 3 VIP tickets from Carling, they both only wanted two VIP's so they each gave my hubby and I one each and we swapped our ordinary ones with them so they could give them to someone else to use if that makes sense.

    Does anyone know where the details of the draw on the site is. Cant find any names yet:confused:
    I hope that my child, looking back on today
    Will remember a mother who had time to play;
    Because children grow up while you're not looking,
    There are years ahead for cleaning and cooking.
    So, quiet now cobwebs, dust go to sleep.
    I'm nursing my baby, and babies don't keep.
