    StokieBecks and melvis: now following you both on twitter

    Good morning all,

    It was a misty start here this morning, now its lovely blue skies as far as I can see!

    I was out all day which means I am sooo behind with the comps now, I tried to catch up last night, but I was too tired.

    We are thinking about going to the Newport food festival tomorrow if the weather is nice. Might take a picnic or fill ourselves up on free samples! :D

    Have a lucky friday everyone.

    Basically there was a competition and I was picked at random even though I hadn't RT'd the comp tweet. I didn't even realise until I'd had a message about it and I thought it was a random follower competition rather than one you had to retweet. Loads of people started kicking off and demanding a redraw, requesting to be my follower just so they could prove I hadn't RT'd, basically being mean to not only me but the comp organisers. The comp organisers claimed it was a bug in the program they used to pick the winner and have redrawn it, but it's made me feel really small and to blame even though I know I haven't done anything wrong
