    Incredible. They picked me up at the airport and whisked me off to 10 Downing Street for a chat with the Prime Minister. Then I addressed Parliament. I was wined and dined and given a penthouse suite. Then they realized I had only won an honorable mention and they kicked me out onto the street to fend for myself among all the many angry Britons.

    Response from festival:

    Thank you for sharing your experience, although it seems there may have been some confusion. Firstly, our festival does not arrange airport pickups for participants. Secondly, we do not facilitate meetings with the Prime Minister or provide penthouse suites for our participants. It appears there may have been a misunderstanding or perhaps a bit of humor involved.

    If you have any genuine feedback or concerns about your experience with our festival, please feel free to share them with us directly. We always strive to provide the best possible experience for all participants.

  • I highly recommend entering this competition!
