E 13/1/07 Ultimate Valentine's Day Experience

Found this in yesterday's Sunday Times Style supplement. (Its too long to copy type it all.)

Win Valentine's Day at the Manor House Hotel, Castle Coombe, Wilts. You'll be greeted on arrival with a dozen red roses and champagne in your luxurious suite. Prize also includes afternoon tea, gourment dinner & breakfast. You will be served a Manor House Hotel Diamond Cocktail, containing a genuine Osaka diamond between 0.6 & 0.7 carots.

Answer the following question and call 09015 604 085 (yeah - as if MSErs would!) or email your answer with name, address & contact details to valentine@newsint.co.uk.

According to mythology, which Roman God shoots arrows that make us fall in love?

    That sounds great! Just the cocktail will do!

    Is there anything in the T&Cs about only one entry per email address or household or anything?
    If you have nothing constructive to say just move along.

    No, there's nothing about only 1 entry (I was planning to use my home & work emails) - presumably they're very happy if people phone in multiple entries?

    There is, however, a catch all at the bottom of the T&Cs saying

    "Promoter reserves the right to refuse any entry if it deems to contravene the spirit of the promotion"
