    Oh My Word. Just received the cheque today. Had the phonecall last week, but just honestly didn't believe it until I got the cheque in my hand. £5,000, still hasn't sunk in. It's made my year, it really has. :j

    Thanks so much to Dalkirst for posting, you can't imagine what this means to me! :beer:

    As a very small way of giving something back, I thought I'd jot down a few thoughts of things I've always wondered about the ITV comps.
    - Usually, I try to keep on top of the ITV comps as if you fall behind, it's a nightmare to get back on track, but with this one, I actually entered the day before the closing date.
    - I used a mobile number
    - I also usually enter the 30 times, and I wait for the red words to appeat for 'You've exceeded your entries...' - I wondered whether this would disqualify you completely, but obviously not.

    Thanks again to you all.....

    So pleased for your win - that's brilliant - well done! :j :j :j Also top tip about getting the 'exceeded' message - have always wondered if that was a bad thing and disqualify you - as I lose the plot as to how many I've done!!! :A
    "You give a little love and it all comes back to you! La La La La La La La!"
    Just loving comping and the good guys here!
