E: 13/05 Win a week for two in Sardinia

Sunday Times Where Was I? competition

The prize:

The winner and a guest will stay for seven nights, on a full-board basis (including wine), at Mark Warner’s Perdepera Beach Resort. Set amid a landscaped flower garden, on the edge of a long, sandy beach, the resort is a hive of nautical activity, thanks to its free sailing, windsurfing and stand-up paddleboarding lessons. Guests can also explore the coast in a kayak, take a fitness class or join a free mountain-biking tour. Tennis coaching is available for an extra fee.

If all that sounds a bit too much like hard work, there is, of course, a pool, as well as plenty of sun loungers on the beach. Parents can also take advantage of Mark Warner’s free childcare for 2- to 17-year-olds, if they feel like having a little break.

The prize, which includes return flights from Heathrow and transfers, must be taken between May 31 and July 5 or August 29 and September 19, subject to availability.

    I can't see any hidden tickboxes. I can't see anything below the tickbox to accept the t & cs and the captcha both of which you have to complete anyway.

    They aren't really hidden tick boxes as they are above the entry button; for some reason they get posted as if they are.

    Hidden tick boxes are IMHO ones below the entry button that you can't see unless you scroll down past what looks like the end of the competition.

    Having said that warning about tick boxes is always a good "thanks" harvester and we are all trying for the score that get Martin to come round and makes us tea.
    Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.

    Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.
    (Wisdom, Courage, Self-control, Justice)

    Willing acceptance - now, at this very moment - of what you can’t change

    All that's missing is the ubiquitous "hope it's ok to add," :D

    Ok thanks. I just wondered if I was missing something.
