This has been bugging me. I thought that, by law, if you run a competition you are supposed to publish the names of winners. Otherwise how do we know the rules were adhered to and anybody won? I didn't enter but for the benefit of those who did I think the results should be published.

Hi Ann
I have to agree with you. Seems strange to me too.
Hope you haven't got too much snow
Take care

Well I hope those who entered have asked then dawnie. Thinking back to when I used to do competitions a lot I am sure you are right.

Perhaps nobody entered, but they dont want us to know that. I wouldnt touch those stickies. They are just after publicity.

And this time I shall not point out to them the spelling mistake. I did so concerning a mistake of theirs in another sticky but this time I shall not bother. How unprofessional not to do a spell check!
