I had a fab win in the end of March: a Netbook and an Apple Ipod touch. I was cross nagging away to OH, went downstairs in tears and found that signed for parcel (the neighbour signed for me) ..... when I opened it I ran to OH screaming I love you, I love you :rotfl:See how comping makes us good citizens :cool:
Now I honestly still have no idea where it came from, not a clue! I think it must have been from your post Laks, you are the one who posts great things :eek::eek: xxxxxxxx We owe you big time xxxx
You deserve a big one xx fingers crossed xx0 -

I remember when i first won something, it was a CD and it just randomly turned up one day. I would of had no idea if there wasnt a note saying congratulations inside. Not a message just that word.Total payment recieved from GPT etc as June: £0.000 -
