Has anyone checked if @DareToDibble did actually dare to dribble on receiving the news?

Hi all.

I CANNOT BELIEVE IT!!! I won the eFests competition! 

Just emailed Neil over my details which I’m sure will all be fine!

SO HAPPY!

Good luck to everyone else in the competitions and if I should win (unlikely) I’ll see if I can sort them for someone here!

Thank you Neil @eFestivals

Just adding my congratulations and to a Gold member too. What a wonderful day for you. Time to make your list now! Have the greatest time Xxx

Nope 7th June. Not sure how much more of it I can drink though. I have already entered 5 times and won 3 prizes

So is it a combination of spot prizes and a final draw?

What is the larger equivalent to mallets, is it a carling carlsberg level? im not a cider man but I'll brave four cans for the cause and see how we go

Hi all!

Haven’t had the chance to read all the messages but thanks everyone  Will have a read through later.

Funny reading some of the theories about people being in a different time zone and not replying quick enough  

One of the few days I was working hard instead of monitoring this thread all the time!

The main Lager supplier is Carlsberg. But they've rarely had a Glastonbury competition in the past - a quick Google search suggests they may have done so for the 2007 festival, and again in 2010 but nothing since.

It's a big standard cider. Somewhere between Strongbow and Thatcher's Gold. Equivalent in lager terms would probably be Carling as you said. It can only be found in Tesco's. Worth a try. Every code on the packs gets you an entry into the draw.

It tastes nothing like lager, if that’s any help ?

[Evans999]

Mallets Cider is ok, My housemate is enjoying the free cans though.

Does anyone know when the WaterAid winner will be announced? Or has that already happened?

Well done, I don’t think I can imagine how utterly delighted you must be. I know what I am like when I get a ticket in October and when I get a resale but to win one now so close to the event must be mind blowing. Good on you!

I had notifications on for this thread so my inbox had about 100 emails telling me about new posts in here  When I skimmed through I saw one titled "Congratulations from eFestivals". Hands started shaking, couldn't click it quick enough! 

I had a colleague out in the car with me today who started laughing. I genuinely had to open the car window, take my sunglasses off and sit there to compose myself before replying. Pretty sure they thought I was mental  

I'm taking my fiance who has never been to Glastonbury before - what a way for her to start!

Brilliant, and as an added bonus you are piling on the upvotes!,  Fiancé eh? A glasto wedding perhaps, I am sure there’s something in the green fields that does them!

Another bonus!

I only proposed in December, should have kept the faith and waited until Glasto. Right outside the longdrops. Romance.
