A couple of Thank Yous and a wee word of Warning

I have been entering every single rugby comp for England tickets that I can find (and so has the rest of the family) and nowt!!!
I was searching my 'deleted emails' today looking for something when i found an email that said….. well done you have won tickets for England Samoa…. The email was from Wednesday and the match was today!!!!!! To say I panicked was an understatement!
I didn't realise it was a late kick-off for the match and had no idea if I could still get the tickets as I hadn't replied to the email. Rang daughter who lives in Twickenham an told her to take a chance and turn up and try to see if the tickets were there. Few emails and phone calls to Marriotts and phew still all OK. So I have one very happy daughter who is sitting in a lovely seat as I type (tomorrow I shall have a very disappointed son whom I shall have to explain it all too!)
So - having found those tickets I did another quick search in my deleted and found 2 tickets for the X-Factor final!!!!!
It really does pay to examine emails more carefully and we should all be a bit more careful!
A big thanks to claire20 for posting the Rugby comp and a thank you to whoever posted the Finish x Factor one (I know I entered from here but can't find it!)
This month is suddenly looking better!
Thank You all again (and sorry for such a long post)

Well done! I just checked my trash,
found 30 days of emails (it deletes forever past that)
I didn't move any of the emails into trash, does anyone know how they got in there?
It is a separate folder to spam.0 -
