Congratulations to GLZ, who this week, has won himself a brand new sapphire! Take note, this is the last time we’ll be offering a Sapphire for a while. So if you really want one, keep an eye out in the future! Until then, we’ve got lots more rares to give away! There’s no mystery about that!

Next week’s prize (which will be drawn on the 25th February) will be a Mystery Item! Still shrouded in secrecy, the mystery item’s use is still unknown, but I guarantee, you won’t be disappointed! If you want to be in on the secret come R4, get your hands on one of these today!

If you want to be in with a chance to win, you’ll need to buy your lottery tickets before next Saturday! Remember, the more you buy, the bigger your chances! Take me to the lottery!

No, it’s not a time machine!

From everybody at BittyBay HQ, we’d like to wish you all a very, very happy Valentine’s day! Unwrap those chocolates, grab your strawberries, and let’s have a jolly ol’ time!

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Now, for the important stuff. Make sure you’re present at tonight’s Opening Ceremony at 9:00PM GMT!

All you have to do is make sure you turn up on time!

And remember, tonight is only the opening ceremony of this year’s Cupid’s Carnival, which is here for the next two weeks!
