    OMG another Cure fan.
    Sorry to go off topic. It's not often another Cure fan comes along.

    Talk about the cure, I was in the era of the Cure and once went out with a guy who was the spit of Robert Smith!
    Best thing was, he was an identical twin!:eek: :rotfl:

    So many lovely prizes!

    Mine must be the U2 tickets for Twickenham (Radio 2 comps). Lifelong U2 fan, so a fab prize.

    My OH won a trip to LA for the Star Wars premier, with £2000 spending money. He is the lucky one in our household (he also won a scooter and £1000 as well), although he rarely enters comps.

    I'm waiting for a Nokia E65 phone which I won a couple of weeks ago. Worth about £250.

I have won a few other things, a playstation and a game from sky tv, and a gameboy game from macdonalds, thats my lot.......... I do enter a few comps. I also won a timeshare but it turned out to be a big con :mad:
