We've always got something fabulous up for grabs here on Gransnet. If you've got any questions about a prize or would like to discuss what you've won with fellow gransnetters, feel free to post here.

Also - do check your emails around the closing date of the competition you've entered. If you've won, we would have emailed you the details. Don't forget to check your junk mail, as sometimes our mails slip through the net.

Best of luck!

I received Death of a Ghost today it is a beautiful hardback copy. Thank you. I was expecting Death of an Honest Man but it doesn't matter I am sure I will enjoy this book. I will read and post a review as soon as I finish the book I am currently in reading. smile

I too received death of am honest man today. Thank you I will read it after death of a ghost as I think that comes first in the sequence. I have never read any Hamish Macbeth before so I am looking forward to it.

Can someone help please?
