    I think it is about a choir in a city, I quite liked the look of this, let me know what it is like when you have seen it please. ;)

    Still makes me giggle that folks are entering comps to fill in letters of the alphabet for our 50 Challenge :rotfl:

    Well done :T

    Yep, it is - it arrived today, fastest prize delivery I've ever had. If I ever find time to watch it I'll let you know what its like.

    Do product tests count as wins? Do you know how mumsnet do comps where you can win books, then you can also win a voucher if you leave feedback on the book, this is something similar.

    I got selected for a mumsnet product test, its called Fruit Drop, they selected 100 people to receive a crate of squash, then there's a feedback thread with a voucher prize.

    Does that count as a win? Or not?

    I'm assuming not, but asking just in case as it would make a good F :rotfl:

    Do you win the product you are testing, before you give the feedbabck?

    I aint sure on this one..Maybe ask The Newt ;)

    And I am in a grumpy mood after every single comper on MSE
    (That may be a slight exaggeration) won a razor but me :(

    But the newt is mean, she's bound to say no ;)

    If its any consolation, I didn't win one either :( but I'm not grumpy about it cos I've already won my Emoji book so I don't need an E:rotfl:and I don't need to shave either so a razor would be useless to me ;)

    I would have thought the mumsnet one would count as there is usually an option for non testers to participate too so would be no different to commenting on a blog really

    What!?!??

    The newt is lovely!!! Firm but fair. (You've made her cry, I hope you are happy)

    The newt says if there was some kind of competitive element and not just everybody who entered got one then it counts.
    Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.

    Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.

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

    I just went to update my list and it keeps saying [Blocked]
    Then it deletes part of my post every time I try and put it back, more gets deleted. So leaving it for now :'(

    I'll save it to a document, as I love this challenge.
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.
