Massive thanks to all the posters for the following comps - prizes are worth maybe £7K and the will be experiences to remember for a lifetime. I've been waiting to get some letters from people as I never quite believe a big win till you see it in writing so I have some MASSIVE thank you's to make. I've had an amazing couple of months.

Thank you so much Jujugaboo. I also won a trip to the Bahamas from this post, another MSE won one too as there were 7 prizes apparently.

Totally amazing and this is my fourth holiday win for next year so I'm going to have to stop entering holiday competitions for a bit as I can't get enough time off work to take them. Which I know is a lovely problem to have... people in the office though have started to grown when i get a winning telephone call.

Thanks so much Cyynika63 for posting this comp

I won a trip to Italy, they are sending me a card with £1500 so I can book it myself I'm thinking a Rome / Venice trip in style.

An update on the Gap Adventures mystery trip i won thanks to EIGHTOF8. I won in July but the mystery has only been properly revealed in the last week so I off on this trip to europe I get flights and everything so will be going to Berlin, Prague, Switzerland and Italy. I'll be tank driving and bungee jumping!! I'm a bit scared about it as it will be just me joining a group of people but fingers crossed it is ace.

Thanks to weeowens for making this post on Friday night I went to the Royal Albert Hall to the AEGON Masters Tennis it including full hospitality. My friend and I had a lovely meal, champagne in our box and got to watch Tim Henman win for a change. I can't believe that people pay £399 each to do what we did but the food and treatment we got was amazing.

Thanks to Lakshmi7 for making this post

I won £150 to spend in Westfield. I had a go at spending it last week but got freaked out by the crowds of people... going to try to find a quiet time to go on a spending spree. I'm not sure if Westfield ever gets that quiet but a saturday pre christmas was pretty silly.

Thanks to helen07 I am going to the Tron premiere tonight in Leciester square and got some chewing gum from Wrigleys.

Thanks to me and to the MSERS who helped me on the Blindmonkey competition. Last night I won a cheque for £500 and 5 gold plated bottles of Monkey Shoulder whisky for my friends. It was the most amazing party. If they do it again next year I'll try to get some other MSERS to really take part as it was fun if rather mental. I posted the comp up but it was rather complicated and I did spend a lot of time doing it. Solving codes etc. but it was worth it.

Thanks to everyone who posts and takes part in the compers forum. I can't believe that I have four holidays now next year to take (I also won a peroni trip to Tuscany) Hope you all win something amazing soon.

    A rule of the universe is, the more you give, the more you get
  • wow those wins sound amazing, No time to take all your hols, that is a fantastic problem to have, the people in your office that groan are probably just a bit jealous.


    Money is good but life experiences are what i am all about, don't get me wrong i like my technology but in years to come it will be great to have your memories to look back on and keep you warm.

    Venice is a wonderful place you will most certainly enjoy it, i went for my b'day as a pressie from OH a few years ago.
    Not done Rome yet but am sure you will have great dfun whatever you choose.

    WELL DONE!!!!!:D
