Was really excited for nothing!

Just had a call from N power it went like this:

"Hello is that Mrs..." I was like yes then he said " im just calling because you entered a competition in April to win a VIP weekend in LOndon..." I said yes I remember and then he said " Im just calling to let you know that....... we will be drawing the competition at the end of this week"

That was it! my heart was pounding for what!?!

oh well... if anyone else gets a call dont get too excited!
BACK and READY..... waiting on Royal Mail!!!

    lol - i've also had this 3 times just this past month from them!

    'Twas some jordie bloke who called me on all 3 occassions

    Some of you may remember me posting that I had a call from them and as he said "goodbye" I replied "LOVE YOU"!!!!! (so embarressing)!!!!

    The second time he called was the following day.... I just said no thank you and hung up...

    The third time he called was last week.... I continued to tell him "I was the woman who said LOVE YOU the other week..... and could they please stop ringing..." Fingers crossed I won't hear from him again (OH was getting jealous;))
    :DPle'ma an bysva?:D
