Hello all
I've just won a competition for the following...
Afternoon Tea with Nigel Slater at The Wolsely, London, on 30th May.
... BUT I've been told the cost is £50.00, which includes the full Wolseley champagne afternoon tea, hosted by Nigel Slater, plus a copy of Nigel's latest book.
Hmm.. I've never known a competition win to CHARGE for the opportunity before. Strange.
Did anyone else get this?

No, but I would certainly begrudge paying.0

Doesn't sound much of a win to me. Are you paying for him too!!!“It was only a sunny smile, and little it cost in the giving, but like morning light it scattered the night and made the day worth living.”

Ah... perhaps I should read things properly before entering..
Well at least I can give it up to another person that lives closer to London & would be happy to pay.
I'm grateful to have been selected anyway! A win is a win!
