with one of the posters signed by Alan Lee - I'll take some photos - the competition will be up in 6 days time!

Cooooo!! that sounds Jolly  ;D ;D

Does the above mean that I can enter  14, 16, 19 or 21 times??????

Confused of Chelters  :-* :-*

 ::)

just the one entry per forum member please!

Hmm this does mean those with split personalities can enter 2x.... so I shall alter the rules, only your nicer alter ego can enter! So for example if you have a Gollum/Smeagol type split only Smeagol can enter?

Are you now less confused of Cheltenham Rob?

Probably not  :-\

Not to sound pushy, but hurry up folks! Anyone who has been meaning to enter: now is the time! The entries must be in by 12.00 midnight (BST) tonight! Any entries we get after that will not be entered

:(

Sorry 'bout that!

... and the winner is BECKA141

Please PM me with your info and I'll get the set out to you asap. It's sort of traditional to do a speech but don't feel pressured :P

Wow!!! I can't believe I won :o :o :o

So here goes samwise16, my acceptance speech.

A big thank you to Chidgey's Collectables for donating the great lithos that I can't wait to see.

And to Roz, who really started me out on the Harry Potter collecting when she started talking about it on the TOPPS boards. I think collecting these cards are much more fun than the LOTR, though I still have a soft spot for them.

Good luck on Competition #7

Congratulations from  ALL  at Chidgeys Collectables

that will be just me then.

anyway I hope that you enjoy them

So I have a few ideas for future prises that i have talked to roz about so this is just the first prize from me watch this space

I'm sorry Gimli, I didn't know you were with Chidgeys Collectables. Thanks for the Lithos!

Hee hee... he IS Chidgey Collectables :D

Great service I might add :)

Well... Joy helps out too occasionally making it 2 people at Chidgey's Collectables :D

I believe base set sorting for Potter could be a full time position for a Chidgey Minion for a few days! ;D

What was the answer?  I thought I had it, and totally forgot to enter.  Now I just want to know if I at least had the right answer.

well in the last few weeks I have sorted 10 cases of Starwars heritage 6 Cases of Lord of the Rings Trilogy and I have 10 cases of thunderbirds waiting to be done

So Potter is on the horision and I really am not looking forward to sorting all those base sets ;D

RNS it was the Smelting stick!

For non native english speaking entrants an explanation of what it was used for was enough (since if you read the translation you can't expect it to be the same)

Roz, what book was this in?  I was all confused because I thought it was the air rifle in book one that he got from someone at school (he traded something for it) and it is now slightly bent because he sat on it. I was in the wrong place altogether.

It was in the first book.  Dudley was dressed in his Smeltings uniform, being admired by his parents.

Thank you!

Hi,

I just wanted to say that I received the Lithos and they are beautiful!!!

Thanks to everybody involved in the contest! ;D

And I just wanted to say that the next competition is coming soon. It's such a huge prize that two dealers have clubbed together to donate it :)

(good news Becca - I am glad you like it)

any hints, what 2 dealers, when. I'm excited  ;D

me three ;D ;D ;D

me four!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Go on then I'll follow the trend...
Me five... ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)

Please tell us Roz, otherwise this thread is going to go on forever! ;)

Alright, then!

I do need to clarify exactly what is in the competition but CONFIRMED is a PoAU Binder from Cards2Collectables, and a sealed HPU box from Chidgey's Collectables !!!

Keep up the pressure guys and if you do I'll try to get it posted tonight...

All I need is a question... Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I'll suggest one, but that means 999 automatic entries for me ;)

"is harry potter a muggle or wizard" ? :D

wow sam that is a tough one  :)
how about
what is the name of the bank tha harry keeps his wizard money in ????

What is Harry's last name? ;D

ive just realised, why do we never hear of ron or hermione or neville or hagrids birthday, mental

have i missed comp number 8????

hmmmmmm wonder what happened to it? ::)

I know roz has been so inundated with prizes to give away that she can't find her way to the computer  ;)

Or is just plain over worked  :)

I am really confused by this thread.

*hooooot*  Competition 6 is long gone.

*hooooot*  Competition 8 was won by mcgonagall who seems to have forgotten or I need reading glasses!

*hoooot*  there never was a Competition 7.

*hoooot*  And how do these competitions run anyhooooo?

Okay We mean comp nine not 8
Nope I know i won number 8 it make up for crappy boxes lmao

Comp seven was lotr so it was in the lotr forum

and to enter roz puts up a question and you answer it and then if you are the lucky person you win the prize

when is comp nine up rozzy?

Thanks for the info mcgonagall.  Do you think we should have a prize for the lousiest Update box opened?  We could as Artbox to donate a card praps?

*phoooot*

yeap that would be a good one and i enter my first box and second box lol
 ;D

 :D

*whoooo*  a note of warning..  don't read other people's want lists...  so depressing.  My want list almost reads like the tally sheet for what was listed in the Update cards.  

Except!  I think I have all the filmcell cards now except for one and some great film bits.  When I work out how to scan em properly I will try and list them.  Great bits of memorabilia!

well since i am happy just to get one of each sort of card my want list consists of
1 auto ( have already arranged something for a auto )
1 creature
1 film  ( have bidded on one on ebay )

So after xmas i will try for a creature card.

But other than that i am happy with the cards i have
