your probably not far wrong! lol, gave each bride a board saying either manchester or b'ham airport so hitching lifts in their wedding dress's

the comp has been done now and jenny won. She got as far as Philidelphia (business class) for nothing and other girl to Helsinki [img]images/graemlins/jump.gif[/img]

So she gets her wedding paid by the radio station, right?
Happy happy happy girl, I guess.

One more thing so even us foreigners an fully enjoy the story: what does "blagged" mean??

Yup its all at the radio stations expense, or rather the hotel that is being promoted.

Blagged is when you use your art of persuasion to get something for free.
