Recently I watched a TV programme about "comping" i.e. entering competitions and I decided to have a go, just entering free on line competitions. Like a good little comper I have a secondary Email address which I use for the purpose.
Unfortunately I hadn't checked it since Thursday. When I checked at 19.15 I discovered that I had won two tickets for tonight's Promenade Concert at the Albert Hall. Starting at 19.30
Oh no. Better luck next time. What else did you win?
ReplyDeleteJust the two tickets - it was a BBC competition
DeleteOh no! That is not good!
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame.
ReplyDeleteOh no! What a shame! Never mind at least it will make you check next time.
ReplyDeleteI was bidding on something I really wanted on ebay last week, 7 lots, i forgot the time, busy doing something else and was outbid on all if them to the tune of 20p!! I was sooo cross with myself.. We live and learn the hardway :-)
But at least you did win something. Hooray, you're a winner! That's the upside right :)
ReplyDeleteOh yes, Rivulet. I'm a winner! But you knew that already - didn't you?
DeleteYou got me, I did already know :)
DeleteIt's still nice to be reminded every now and again (even if you can't use the prize... right?)
