Won a "Blood Diamond" Top

Just had a delivery from Empire Cinemas -

:j



Long Sleeved t-shirt (olive-green with 'blood diamond' on) - won't fit me :sad: - but should do dd1 a treat (especially this colour).


I have 'searched' forum to see which competition it was I entered but not found nowt.:confused: Anyone remember who posted it as I want to make sure I thanked them. (I am assuming it was a comp to win premiere tickets and this was a runner-up/compensation prize - anyone else won one?)

    Might be this one as it says 'other film merchandise'? The other one I could see is this but it only mentions the one prize.

    Thanks Strepsy

    I think it must be the one that you originally posted as it mentions Empire cinemas whereas the itv one doesn't.

    Cheers:beer:

    Hi Prudent

    DD1 is 11 (and don't we know it - already having moments of teenage strops, angst, SATs pressure, etc - ) - but she's a good kid 99% of the time (apart from tidiness not being one of her strongest point;) . She is tall (like her dad) though so needs 'adult' sizes for the length - I hate the bare-midriff look with a passion - lol

    Fortunately DD2 is only 5 - so a while before I have to deal with her hormones too!

    If its any consolation to you my dd went through huge strops age 11. She is now 14 and ok for the majority of the time, only the rare strop. And is also taking some responsiblity for her room :T :T Our neighbour works for environmental health and I am surprised he didn't condemn it for about a four year period.

    You're very welcome essexgal, nice to see an MSE'r win :D

    Quickblood seems to have won a very good prize from a post of mine today too! Hope it's my turn to win one of mine soon.
