Doesn't that just mean there'll be a new competition location from tomorrow so hurry if you haven't entered?

I also think it's also just part of the competition VS are currently running on their Facebook page.

I agree I think it is just a reference to their current competition.

As the Facebook contest involves giving some spammeister full access to your Facebook account, and the accounts of your friends, so I have given it a miss. v( n(

Good luck to all that enter though. 8D

It just wants you to post you have entered the competition on your wall and share with your friends via messaging - both skippable. You can uninstall it once the competition is done.

I understand why some people are uncomfortable with it though.

I'm also one of those people who won't let these applications have access to my account. And I do get fed up when my news feed is spammed when people I know have allowed it. So I just block the applications and you never have to see another post again.

As a Facebook developer, it's equally frustrating to try to GET access to your Facebook data. People don't understand how locked down Facebook really is. You have to authorize us to see your data, and even then it really isn't anything spectacular.

The information they're requesting in that Linda application isn't much more than you would fill out in a form to enter a contest or sweepstakes. Plus, they can only retrieve the information you have made visible to "EVERYONE". If you've marked all your information as "Friends Only" or even "Friends of Friends" then they can't see it.

Oh!! I was getting excited there for a minute, thinking we might have a new route!

Facebook - GRRR - don't do it, don't understand it, and have better things to do with my time!!! - but then, maybe I'm becoming a grumpy old man!

It's definitely Cape Town. Check out the wikipedia page for Cape Town; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cape_Town

The first photo matches Linda's photo with the rocks in the background perfectly.
