Is it just an advert pretending to be a comp?

It says it's a "cruel competition" - so is it meant to be cruel because the prizes are probably useless to most people?
Very odd.

It's only the competition link that was on the side of the MN page. It goes to the Horrible Histories website.
Or you can find it by googling "cruel competition sydney" if you're worried about spam.

If they want to Make Amends, they can fly me out to do a review and see my old mate Sarah
The team at MNHQ that deal with comps.
There has been lots of spam so it may be another element of that.
Morning. Sorry for the initial confusion: I think CatherineMumsnet thought you were referring to a Competition run by MNHQ.
This is a comp being advertised on a banner ad, from what I can work out. If so, it's not a comp run by us. But we'll contact the client who bought the ad as soon as we can, and see what we can find out.
