What are they looking for? What did you click? Gap Year vs No Gap Year ? Swimsuit vs bikini ? Tea vs coffee ? I think I got them all wrong.

So are they calling people, or is it a wind up? hmm

Why has the closing date changed?

lol -there will be lots of speculating and checking to see who hasn't posted the week of the trip!

(although if the winners have internet access in Costa Rica they could cover their tracks, providing that they don't start threads like:
"Can you identify this snake/spider/lizard that I've found in my hotel room bedroom?"

or "Advice on holidaying alone with people you've never met before"

or "I think I've drunk too much coffee. How can I get to sleep?"

On the anonymity thing - I guess it's up to the winners. They are going to have to sign up to having the photos and names made public, so they won't be able to be completely. I guess if they don't want that linked to their mumsnet persona we can always give them a pseudonym..

<<And the lucky winners of the Kenco comp are... drum roll... Kenco 1, Kenco 2 and Kenco 3 ....>>

Guess it will then be up to the winners to maintain that pseudonym/anonymity if they want to. Should be interesting to see who can keep those marracas quiet grin

MN Towers - have you thought about how you're going to handle the anonimity around the competition? Y'know - when you announce that X, Y & Z have won, then a few weeks later their photos are on the kenco website or something, well, er, people will know who they are!

Add your message here

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]
For a shocked face,  , type [shock]
For an angry face,  , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face,  , type [blush]
For a sad face,  , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,  , type [envy]
For a sceptical face,  , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
