    Katie please don't be upset hun, you were just being your usual wonderful kind self xx

    If there is no-one left at all that can go, and I mean no-one, I have a friend from the Island who has already won 2 tickets and needs 2 more so her and her family can all go. She is looking to buy them but very cheaply. I know that's not in the spirit of what we tried to do here but if you end up having them with no home to go to please consider having a nice little sum to buy some new Games and Cd's for yourself. Let me know tomorrow how you feel and I will call my friend if you want to do that xxxxx
    That ain't working! That's the way to do it, money for nothing and TV's for free ;)
  • I know I asked people to enter for Milkshake for me, it's not near where I live but we could use them because I have family that live near the venue. I know I'm probably being paranoid but will understand if no-one wants to enter for me anymore :(

    don't worry - it's not like you've asked for everyone to enter everything for you and to get you tickets for 5 different places x

    Miss you all. Can I still be a regular? I am here in spirit! Gotta do the moving house and finding a job thing and then will be back to my lovely comping and the Inn.

    PMS as a lurker around here i know you do more than enough for the forum and i'm happy to enter for any tickets you need as i honestly don't enter for tickets unless they are for family anyway. If theres ever anything you want entered PM me and i'll enter for you as i don't always get a chance to check the inn.
    Thankyou to all the posters of competitions :beer:
  • I know BM but I feel awful asking now, my LO loves Milkshake on Channel 5 so much & has seen advertised the show but there's no way I can afford tix for it so was hoping for a family tix win.
