I got an email purporting go be from Justine Roberts ( Is she not a wonderful co- founder of Mumsnet?)
Is this email kosher?
I didn't open it .

I was disappointed to find that, despite receiving an email directly from Ann McIntyre @ MNHQ, I hadn't actually won a competition . . . Grin

Oh no, how annoying! She lovely, though, that Ann: you couldn't have been disappointed by a nicer person.
