    I've won a few mini-breaks in the UK - a couple to London, one to Manchester & one to Harrogate - which were all fab!

    Just before Christmas I had my biggest win which was a 3 night trip to Lapland, which we are taking this November. We'll be going with our 2 1/2 year old daughter and can not wait!! :)

    I don't try for many holidays as a lot of them are for couples and I wouldn't be able to pay the xtra to take our son but I did win a lovely weekend break in Wales in January. I was very lucky as I booked it and we had that lovely weekend of glorious weather in March. Although it was only an hour a way from where I live it was fab to be spoiled and looked after - for FREE!:)

    Good Luck - Hope you have a fantastidc holiday win soon.

    I won a holiday to Korea in 2010. It was a country that I would never have chosen to visit but it was an amazing experience and the people are so friendly and kind. We has our own personal tour guide who took us to some amazing places and was definitely a trip I will never forget.

    In the 90s I won a three week break to Sydney, with a two night stay in Singapore, it was amazing.

    This year I won a three night break in a beautiful cottage in Dorset and had just as much fun because I shared it with the loveliest people. :D

    Now I'm concentrating all my energies on winning a honeymoon because I get married next year :j
