Dear 888ladies

Did you know that on 8th March, it is the 100th International Women’s Day world event? Starting in 1911, International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future.

As you all know, women have come a long way in a short time, when in many Westernised countries there were considered to be second class citizens, in many countries throughout the world, women still are not treated equally. However, great improvements have been made. We have female astronauts and prime ministers, school girls are welcomed into university, women can work and have a family; women have real choices. And so the tone and nature of IWD has, for the past few years, moved from being a reminder about the negatives to a celebration of the positives.

Annually on 8 March, thousands of events are held throughout the world to inspire women and celebrate achievements. A global web of rich and diverse local activity connects women from all around the world ranging from political rallies, business conferences, government activities and networking events through to local women’s craft markets, theatrical performances, fashion parades and more.

As we are 888ladies, after all, we LOVE the fact that we are full of amazing, empowered, beautiful ladies, we want to make 8th March EXTRA SPECIAL FOR YOU!

We have two amazing Guaranteed Jackpots for £200 each!! At 4pm in Ladies First and again at 8pm in Engaged Ladies for only 10p a card – 5 minimum!!!

There will be great activities here on the Blog and Facebook.

We are going to have a Poll for Female Heroes in History!! Send in your singular nomination for a FAMOUS PERSON who is a female icon in history. (I know that your female family members are soooo important to you but this is for inspiring women in history who have made a difference or mean a lot to you). There will be LPs for the winning nomination of Monday’s poll and LPs for a roomie who votes in the poll and votes for the winning entry and LPs for a roomie who takes part in the poll and votes for fantastic historical lady who doesn’t win.

There may even be a special Bonus Code available….. :) :):)

Dear 888ladies & 888gents

And if that isn’t exciting enough that the X Factor Tour is now on…..we’ve managed to get hold of 4 pairs of tickets that’ll guarantee to make you explode right here, right now!

These money-can’t-buy tickets will allow the lucky winners (and their even luckier plus ones!) the chance to rub shoulders with the stars of the show and spend some quality time mingling with the artists and bigwigs backstage!

To get your paws on these priceless tickets simply play both X Factor instant games (the scratch card and the slot machine) as much as you jolly well can between February 19 and March 19 and one draw a week draw will be held to pluck out the 50 members who wagered the most on the X Factor instant games in that week.

Tickets for the Glasgow, London, Manchester and Newcastle shows are all up for grabs although the Manchester draw is only open to our Gold ladies, so if Manchester’s what you’re after, you’ll have to go gold!
