Real People Win Im so happy im Crying

Hiya all,

Im over the moon, Ive just had a letter from Real People to say ive won £1,500 on one of their puzzles:j , i cant believe it, This means ill be able to pay off all of my overdraft £1000 maxed to the limit at the moment and get rid of it and put towards some clothes and treats,

I would like to thank whoever posted the link not sure who it was and thank everyone who posts all the comps. I cant stop crying im searching for a second job at the moment and i was feeling a bit down in the dumps over not having much luck with getting anywhere and sick of lending money off my parents,

This is fab, :beer:
does anybody know how long the cheque usually takes? ive sent the confirmation off to day, also not sure whether to send a picture??

Happy comping to all and hope your all having a lovely day!
