Hi all.
I am not sure who to Thank, but I just got a call from Absolute radio to say that I had won a trip to Italy as a winner in the Vodafone Roaming Reporter competition. details here -

Unfortunately the prizze has been moved to take place from 7-11 August, and I am away in France on holiday so I can't go! Absolutely no movement on prize dates, so am naturally gutted, would have been a great prize.
So anyway, thanks to the OP, and this is my first win in a while, so to all those who haven't won for ages, keep going, the prizes do come (As long as you aren't on holiday of course!)
Cheers all.

To be fair I only can't use it as I am on holiday already, so can't grumble too much! It's just really frustrating to get a great prize and then have to let it through my fingers.
Would have loved visiting Pompei and Mount Vesuvius - guess I'll just have to go on holiday there next year instead!2008 Competition Wins - USB Drum Kit, Vita Audio Digital Radio, Sony Vaio Laptop. 2009 Competition Wins - American Zombie DVD, Cornbury Festival ticket, Hospitality at Arsenal FC, Damned United book, 4X Cinema tickets, lots of Mars balls!

That is frustrating! But well done on winning anyway. Won't they let you give it to someone else, like a friend or family member? It seems a shame for it to go to waste!
Have a fab holiday though!Wins so far (since July 2009): Tickets for 'The Three Bs' @ O2 and CD VIP tickets to Riot@Matter0 -
11. The prize may not be transferred to any other person.
If the tickets are named, you may not be able to give them away

What a shame you can't go maybe they can let you give it away or they can re draw.Many thanks to the wonderful staff at Birmingham Childrens Hospital caring for my tiny and very poorly grandson who was born at 29 weeks. Thanks to them he is getting a little stronger every day.:A:A:A0
