Teehee nice one
He plays on the 'cheeky Essex chappy' sort of image, often seen wearing a hat (at a jaunty angle, I expect).
Have fun lol - we want pictures

It's at the Newport, Gwent store, I was just surprised something was going on near to me! I'm actually from Bournemouth where we have tons of events, but nothing ever happens up in Newport! lol
You're right though, a win is a win, though shame no free book.
I'd be willing to give away my ticket, wouldn't want payment for it, but not sure if it's transferable. Here is the email:
Congratulations!

You're right - nothing ever does!! I'd have it off you (I'm in Newport) but no want for anything Olly Murs to be honest :rotfl:
If you have trouble getting rid I could ask my local friends? Not sure if any are interested but worth a try I suppose
But well done
Thanks to all posters :A0 -
Ah someone else in Newport! Yay. I know nobody here (apart from Partner & his family) and am so homesick for Bournemouth.2013 Wins:~ Toastie Maker-Lipstick-Perfume-Acer Tablet :j Bafta Dvd Boxset-4 Board Games-Tetris Light-Joint Yr Membership Woodland Trust-Trek Baby Carrier & Baby Flannel-£100 Smyths Toy Store Voucher, Fruity Pots0

I too got one of these WEMs this morning. I must have been read the comp wrong as I thought it was a signed book rather than a book signing
Oops. If anyone want my ticket they are welcome to it. I'm in Bournemouth and it's just a tad too far to go
