I posted the entry off a couple of days ago.
I did the big pullout starhunt and most of the crossword on the other side but in the end I gave up on that and just sent it in uncompleted with th other pages to enter the starhunt.

Today when I checked my letterbox there was the pull out entry page.....Shocked ....No envelope, nothing writen on the puzzle.....it was just there......I can't work it out.....*scratches head*....The postman must have used my entry form details to return it.....but how'd it get out of the envelope and into the post alone I wonder? I'm pretty sure Lovatt's dont' return invalid puzzles.....It's very amusing.. Laughing

Hi julksy

That is highly unusual, wonder if someone interfered with the mail?

Why don't you send Lovatts an e-mail, telling them what has happened, and asked them if by any chance they received your other entries. Worth a try I think.

Good luck.
Regards Dutchy.

Wouldn't it be too hard for them to check if they recieved the other entries?

I might email them tho....I think it's very strange...but amusing too....hehe

Hi Julksy,

That is the strangest thing I've heard in a long while!

Hope your other entries that were in the envelope arrived safely at Lovatts- might be a good idea to contact them and see.

Maybe it's a sign that you were meant to finish the Monster Colossus after all- there's still a bit of time left before the deadline! Laughing

Hope your entry gets there the second time around, and brings you lots of good luck- will keep my fingers crossed for you Julksy :wink:

Talk to you soon.
Take care, warm regards Butterfly Very Happy

I've just emailed them.....In a light-hearted way of course.
I'm not angry about this at all.....I think it's very funny....hehe

Well looks like I'm gonna go to my grave with this mystery.......

He's the reply from Lovatts.

Dear Julie

Thank you for your enquiry.

How strange! I can guarantee that Lovatts would never return an entry valid or not. I would say that your envelope was damaged in the sorting process and they thought that they were doing the right thing by returning it to you.

Unfortunately, due to the large volume of entries that we receive, I am unable to let you know if we received your other entries or not. I'll cross my fingers for you.

Good luck in future competitions.

Should you have any further queries regarding this matter please don't hesitate to contact me again.

Kind Regards

Shelley Maxwell
