August 22, 200717 yr This is what I'm afraid of. That some people have entered just for the crack and won't turn up. Maybe he only wanted a half dozen in the first place and is working on the number 15 to allow for the no shows :lol: Or it could be that for every 3 picked each week, 1 is a plant, thus ensuring that a small dinner party (for 6) will be taking place regardless ;) :D
August 22, 200717 yr This is what I'm afraid of. That some people have entered just for the crack and won't turn up. Perhaps they should have made it registered members only... then that would be unlikely to happen :)
August 22, 200717 yr Hmmmmn.....if they didn't want it discussed then surely they wouldn't have printed the winners names until after the event with clear instructions to them not to reveal any details.. I think its a damn shame this wasn't for the registered members....yes I KNOW you can be a fan & still read the sites but wouldn't it have been really nice if we were certain that the winners were really keen fans and not some casual passer by who has maybe just 1 album & drops by from time to time...

I've been saying this to anyone who will listen to me :lol: ...it's such an amazing prize and like you say,it would have been wonderful to be SURE that the winners were dedicated fans. Years ago this competition would have been for fan club members only...Will doesn't have a fan club so the nearest thing to that is the OS. Edited August 22, 200717 yr by Panther
August 23, 200717 yr Maybe I should just enter any old thing then :unsure: Congrats to the winners so far :cheer:
August 23, 200717 yr Great that one of the winners have now posted on Devoted. :cheer: Let's hope she comes back and tells us how it went. I still think a simple question would have done if they weren't going to bother over the answers. ;) Edited August 23, 200717 yr by munchkin
August 23, 200717 yr Isn't it great that Marion has posted on Devoted? and she's been a huge Will fan since day one, :cheer: it's obvious that there's thousands of Will fans out there who are just as big a fan as we are, but just don't post on forums, if they all did we'd never be able to get on the sites as they would crash!
August 23, 200717 yr Doesn't seem as excited as I would have expected <_< Still, wish it had been a regular poster tho' - guess I'm just a suspicious bug*er :mellow: Sorry guys, don't mean to be a damp squib, promise to keep my thoughts to myself from now on... :lol:

I think I could be classed as a "crazy Will fan", :wacko: but maybe not as crazy as the girl we saw at Harewood house, she had a big parka type coat on and Jeans with the words "Will" and "Will Young" all over her clothes and also Will badges, she even had "Will" drawn on each side of her face as well. :o

August 28, 200717 yr I wonder why we haven't had an update today on the next three winners? maybe it's because of the bank holiday yesterday. :unsure:

August 31, 200717 yr The next three are up: 31/08/07 DINNER WITH WILL WINNERS PART III We're really pleased to announce the next three winners of our Win Dinner With Will competition. They are... Isabel Paterson, Sharon Lord and Adam McClelland. So what's on the menu this week, and who's eating it? Isabel's ideal guests: Gene Kelly, for his incredible talent and style; Princess Diana for her compassion and beauty; and George Anderson, Isabel's father who died some years ago. Plus Billy Connelly for the laughs! On the menu: Thai queen scallops and salad to start with, followed by a fillet of black halibut with lemon sauce and seasonal veg, finished off with fresh fruit salad. All to be washed down with a bottle of Chablis and some champagne, and then coffee and liqueurs. Sharon's ideal guests: Luckily, Will Young! Because she's watched him grow from his very first audition on Pop Idol, and think he's done a damn fine job (we'd have to agree). Joining Will would be James Martin, because when Sharon met him at a book signing she froze and only said 'hello', so she'd like a second chance. Representing the women would be Kylie Minogue, because she'd like to be able to wave a magic wand and find her a wonderful husband who would treat her well, and Princess Diana, who was a fab mum and is Sharon's style icon. On the menu: Mussels in a delicate creamy wine sauce with lots of fresh Ciabatta bread to soak up all the juices, followed by a rustic paella with chicken, prawns, cockles and mussels. Adam's ideal guests: His mum, so he would know she is eating well while he's away! Joining Adam's mum would be Charlie Parker, because he would love to be able to say he had dinner with him, and his great-grandma, so he could meet her again and catch up. Completing the party would be Martin Luther King, because everybody should listen to, and follow, his speech. On the menu: To start with, haggis in filo pasty with white cheese sauce, followed by good ole' steak and chips, and rounded off with Baileys cheesecake Well done people - whoever you are Edited August 31, 200717 yr by munchkin
August 31, 200717 yr Thanks, munchkin. I wonder whether that's Isabel who posts on Devoted?! :) Would be nice if it was her. We've got a few Sharons as well, so who knows, we might know her, too. Anyway, congratulations!!! :cheer:
