Hi everyone. Not sure if I'm in the right place to ask this question, but here goes:

I'm trying to do my comps ending tomorrow in firefox. It usually works fine if I put

"E: 27/04" site:moneysavingexpert.com

But today it won't work.It says that the search didn't match any documents.

Has anyone else com across this problem at all, or is it just me.
Where's the confused smiley when you need it?

Is anyone able to listen to Absolute Radio tomorrow, Thursday and Friday during the day?

There are a few of us who entered this comp to win a trip to one of the World Cup quarter final matches - it didn't say anything about having to go on the radio, but now I've had an email:

Dear Absolute Radio lover...

Thanks for registering to win quarter final tickets to the FIFA World Cup™.

On Wednesday 28 April at 10am, Russ Williams will read out the name of one person who has registered their details online at absoluteradio.co.uk. If it’s you, then you’ve got thirty minutes to call in. You’ll be asked a security question to make sure it’s you and not some dodgy fraudster. Then you’ll go on-air with Russ and you’ll be asked a question. If you get it right, then you’ll be off to the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ courtesy of Sony Ericsson!

If the person doesn’t call in within the thirty minutes or they get the question wrong, we’ll read out another name on the hour, every hour until someone claims the prize.

We’ve got three pairs of tickets to give away across the week – so make sure you’re listening from 10am on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

I can't listen to the radio at work - is there any kind person who could listen and post the names which get read out?

Thanks in advance

Sorry CG, I just use the sort by: Thread Title; Sort Order: Ascending via the comp page.

liz id suggest posting this in that comp thread so people who are still entering can see itm and people who enter comps by new posts also see it and maybe somneone will listen. should get more response/views that way i think?

Could anyone do us a favour?

I'm not going to be comping for a couple of months as I have professional level exams coming up so need to knuckle down and revise hard. They're £81 to sit each exam, so I don't particulary want to fail and have to re-sit for that price!!

Anyway, there's a few comps I regulary post or at least check they have been posted, and was wondering if someone could check that they're posted every month and post them if not while I'm away as I'd hate for people to miss out!

Anyway, as follows:

http://www.crafts-beautiful.com/index.php/competitions/
These are currently on here but suspect they will change sometime soon (Friday prehaps). They change monthly.

http://www.letsknit.co.uk/index.php/competitions/
I haven't posted these yet so if someone would like to that would be fab! These also change monthly.

http://www.sewmag.co.uk/index.php/sewing_giveaways/
I haven't got round to posting these either!!! Again they change monthly!

http://www.makejewellerymagazine.com/index.php/giveaways
These have all been posted but are in Game Over. These will undoubtedly be changing very soon! Again monthly.

http://www.letsmakecards.com/index.php/giveaways/
These are on here and posted by BarnabySue so she might continue to post them. Monthly again.

http://www.explorermagazine.co.uk/competitions/
These change monthly as well, I *think* on the first of every month. They are currently posted but will change to the May ones soon.

Hope someone can help out!!

Sorry about just charging in here uninvited!!! BUT.........I have a question that has been bugging me for some time.
What is Bonkers?
I have seen lots of posts about people winning a cheque with Bonkers, but I have no idea what that is.
