in I won! I won! I won!
Huge thanks to hjb123 for the answers - all the time! :T

I received a letter to say i've won £25 in the Wordscramble puzzle dated 7th June. This is my first Real People win. I have to fill in a form and send it back to them and then they send me a cheque - is that normal??? It also asks me to include a photo, but at the bottom of the letter its says you do not need to send a photo to receive a cheque??? No one wants to see my ugly mug!!:eek: Have people who've won before sent in a photo??

NOW IN COMPING SEMI-RETIREMENT! :D

    Congrats littleholly. I won £100 from them in May. I didn't send a photo in and received a cheque at the end of June. HTH

    Prudent, looks like a phone call may be a good idea - my win was after yours and I've received my cheque :confused: Got the phone no here if you want it.
    And if I really were an angel, I'd float over your bed
    Each night a different dream of me I'd plant inside your head
    And if I were an angel, I tell you what I'd do
    I'd appear in a vision and I'd give my wings to you
