in I won! I won! I won!
Thank you so much to Katie L for posting The Perfume Shop comp - I have won the complete Versace Crystal Collection of 3 perfumes and body lotions :j I think it's worth about £250 + so it's my biggest and best win yet :D

Just a little question please for you more experienced compers - I have sent them my details but have been asked to provide some photo ID to prove I am over 16. I've never been asked for that before since I am 51 :p. Any suggestions of what I can send since I don't have a driving licence or a passport??

    Congrats :)

    I'd tell them of your dilemma and ask if they'd accept a copy of your birth certificate. This is normal for The Perfume Shop comps - I don't know why this is, can you not buy perfume in the UK unless you're over 16?

    Thank you all!

    OneYorkshireLass, yes, I have sent them an email explaining so I'll see what they say on Monday when they are in the office again. My birth certificate would be fine except it's in my maiden name but I am hoping they will accept that.
