  • I'm glad some people on here who have even told people of the "win", are still alright in admitting it was human error and nothing more. The apoligy email looks to be going out now but juding by some peoples reaction on here I won't be surprised if they still contact the daily mail.

    ok - next interesting question is...................


    WHO DID WIN??
  • Received second e.mail.
  • I reckon the apology is pretty rubbish considering how much anguish it's caused everyone.

    I wonder who actually DID win!?
