    could it be this one?

    sounds a little bit like a sales call to me, but I could be wrong.


    EDIT: won't be this one - it hasn't finished yet!!
  • I asked her was it a writing comp and she said yes,whether it is because its a sales call i dont know.I dont think I entered this prize draw as it wouldnt benefit me with living in a council house.
    I entered a writing comp for telegraph there were many catergories and I chose to write about my family vacation, the winner of each catergorie would win a holiday.
    I cant find it anywhere, I know they will write winners on there website on the page of comp but I still cant find the page x
