I'd totally underestimated how long these would take! I'm enjoying it though and I've already had a mini win. A perfect fajita kit from Discovery Foods :j Thanks to OYL for your hard work, you're a superstar, and everyone else involved! :T
Luck to everyone and I hope there are many MSE winners

While I was doing the dishes earlier I thought of a few advents I enjoyed entering last year, that don't seem to be there this year ??? Have googled, but can't find any evidence of them running this year, does anyone know any different?
Costa Coffee (kind of tree thing on FB)
Tesco Wine Community
Regent Street Online
Cineworld (was a Hobbit-related comp on FB)
Anyone seen any of these knocking about??0 -

Its a first world problem, found out today my mum is fit and well (she'd been having tests to see if she had cancer) and that's what's important. And at least this solves prob of the advents
