    Is this still ongoing, as I can't see it.
  • it was there when i entered on the 7th but i cant see it now either.....
  • Running some polls in its place in the side column for now, but we'll still be making the draws. Technically new people can still enter as they can still join the mailing list, but unless you come to the site from somewhere like this you won't even know a draw is taking place at all.

    We're looking at tidying up the terms and conditions too and/or the way we announce winners before we bring it back publicly - one winner complained that their name was published... even although they were specifically told in the email asking for their postal address that if they provided it, that would happen. (we obviously only published their name, not their address!) Seems you can't even give stuff away without the recipient complaining...

    Someone else emailed demanding to be entered into the prize draw, but without their email address going on the mailing list. They did say they seen it here, so hi if you're reading :) So I guess we are meant to fund giveaways with absolutely nothing in return... not sure why they think companies run things like this :j

    thank you for letting us know, and thank you for the comp as well.
    My light may be on, but that doesn't always mean I am looking at the PC - I am far more likely to be cuddling or feeding Tianna atm, so please don't think I am ignoring you if I don't reply quickly :)

    Our Precious Baby Tianna has now joined our Family, she is much loved and very welcome, xxx

    Thanks for that Prague. I'm always happy to click on anything on a site that is linked to a comp - presumably the sponsors of comps need you to do this to help fund sites, and get data. I'd seen the polls, and filled them in.
    You're right, there are a lot of rude ungrateful people out there.
