Aggghh, thats a bummer! I bet you felt like shouting at him didn't you Em?
I know I would of! hahaha.
I will go to the GOF premiere, hoping to anyway.... My Nan lives in London so I think I will chance the next movie. Plus it is nice that it's being directed by a British Director, so it would be nice to support Mike Newell too.
I wonder if anyone from SS will win this comp?

I did feel like shouting at him. It was all planned before hand though, must have been. The two girls weren't even excited, they didn't scream once! I was in tears after that, hysterical. But really, you can't blame me for that.

Yah, That does Suck!!
Set Up I say - Set up!! ahhhhh. No-one would blame you for being upset, I would have been kicking myself.
Can I have some of that chocolate Kaz? 
Oh I hope at least one of us wins - would be a nightmare for me to get there though... I would have to fly. :/

I think flying would be cheaper, I want to visit scotland one day anyway, especially Edinburgh. I could prbably get a cheap easijet flight from Southampton, thats only an hour drive from where I live. The possibilities are endless. *crossing my fingers and toes* In fact I am going to enter my Mum into that competition too Kaz! | |

I enterd a comp just like this in the Herald.
(only you win 4 tickets!)
I just cant wait to see If I've won! I live in Glasgow which is only like a 45 minute drive away from Edinburugh, so it would be no hassle!
I am seriously getting my hopes up to win a competition that propbably 1 million people have entered.
But it's nice to dream!
