    Bah! I'm way too caught up to even think about it at the moment. Maybe later in the month.

    To clear some ambiguity.... the terms and conditions are a standard company template so perhaps I should have amended where appropriate! i am obviously conducting this competition for the members of this forum so your feedback is essential!
    I personally believe, due to the nature of the competition requiring effort from the participants, it should be a professionally judged competition... any thoughts?

    Sounds great, and judged would be most appropriate I think to get some effort going, Im quite excited and definitely going to enter One question though, do you have to make a purchase in order to enter? or can you enter and win the gift certificate?

    FAB idea, but the intracises not thought out........................... the drawback of being an employee!! So if we go with the September /autumn theme and the £100 credit in one purchase with cooksons......regardless of the cost of your entry/ paper design?????? Will it be judged or a draw as indicated.....if judged...who will the judges be???? design cred?? if a draw, then I can give you my name to be entered..........does it have to be made or just drawn, will it make any difference to 'judging'? Obviously not to a draw. Would like to participate but would appreciate some clarity please!

    It is to be judged.. and as I previously mentioned... I was going to go on general consensus as to whether the moderators/administrators judge the competition or whether our Cookson's Professional Jewellers here at the company judge it..? The cost of making is entirely up to you... I would have to have a standard prize otherwise it gets far too complicated in deciding the prize according to design cost. I don't think you can have a combination of drawn/made as, like you said. I am hoping for made pieces.

    Hope this clears a few things up...?

    Hi Lucy, not quite sure what you mean...

    You do not have to make a purchase prior to the competition, you win a future order of your choice to the value of £100... does that make sense/
