I've also got nothing. But a friend who lives only a few streets away got his magazine and is accepted which strikes me as odd. oh well - maybe tomorrow for us who didnt get anything today? Not sure I can wait until next week.
SO it seems rejected bequeathers and accepted bequeathers have heard. Have rejected non-bequeathers heard anything? That would leave a lot of accepted non-bequeathers still to hear (maybe tomorrow???)
Does anyone know if there's a way of finding out how many times you've been rejected? I've moved house several times and have lost some of the rejection letters. I'm pretty sure I'm guaranteed entry next year but have no proof. Do they keep a note of rejections on computer?
Still havent got a yes or no!? My Dad got his rejection mag this monring, but was no show friend hasnt got hers either. Those that are has you money come out yet? Well done on those who did get
Friends had got the reject mag on Thursday. Then I came on RW and noticed that acceptance mags were arriving on the Friday. Logic - I hadn't got my mag yet because I was in!
Got home yesterday - no mag.
Went for a run this morning to loosen up for Run To The Beat tomorrow - I'm still a bit stiff after the very challenging Dunstable 20 Mile Challenge on Sunday. Then I've hung on for the postman before niping down to Wetherspoons for breakfast.
Rustle, thud. The mag has arrived.
It's thoughful of the organisers to put the news on the outside so you can see straightaway the result. No having to fumble with nervous fingers trying to tear open the plastic bag.
Is it worth reading it? Or shall I shove it straight in the bin?
