OUT OF AFRICA (June 13 issue)

Sue Tivey was lucky enough to win a South African Safari with Woman's Weekly.
"We had a wonderful time at the Hippo Hollow Resort, the hotel was lovely and the staff went out of their way to make our stay fabulous. It was a fantastic holiday and all thanks to information from Compers News and Chatterbox.

And if that was not enough, I recently won a ten day motor home holiday for two to Tasmania from a competition you recently featured in Compers News....Compers News is definitely worth the yearly subscription."
