Who's Tracey Ryder?0

I also sent them my date of birth, just in case - with the prize involving alcohol. Suppose it wouldn't matter if you didn't though because they could just telephone you if you won to check age.Most recent wins: IPad, Jamie Magazine yearbook, Links of London friendship bracelet, Baumatic ice cream machine! :j0

I'm really confused. Who's Tracey and what's she got to do with this competition?0

If you click on the wesite link, she (Tracey) had posted the list of answers as a comment on the site right under where it says DO NOT post your answers on site.
:doh:
Edit: The Times has removed them now.Jo x2007:£5181.09 2008: £6619.70 2009: £4284.49 2010: £5213.14 2011: £4980.62 2012: £3188.52

Thanks josie. She'd better not have copied from me - it took me ages to find a couple of the answers.0
