    Evening all :D

    I had a VERY traumatic 5 minutes this afternoon ... my mobile rang at work, a London number. I'm not allowed to answer my mobile at work so wrote the number down and called it back a couple of minutes later ... "Hello, Absolute Radio" ... me --> :eek::eek::eek: explained I'd had a missed call. Nice lady said "ooh, have you entered any competitions on the website", I said yes I've entered a few. She said hold on and put me thru to the comps department. Spoke to comp lady who asked if I'd entered any competitions on the website, I said yes and she took my name and then said "actually, every one who's won today has already been informed" and she didn't know why anyone had phoned me :confused::confused::(:(:( been very disappointed all afternoon since :mad:

    and no post and no WEM's :rolleyes:

    how's everyone elses day been? xxx

    good luck in sorting something else out - otherwise could you just not get some CDs and borrow a stereo from somewhere?


    Just been to tesco and OH allowed me to buy magnums :j They were stocking up with non-comping packs though as the competition ends at the end of the month so hopefully less people will have sticks to enter soon.
