Just finished doing today's Advent comps - 20 pages. No instant wins today. Live in hope I receive a wem.
Got some of The Times Comp done today. Only 1 yesterday.
fire**fly will have a piece of your chocolate cake. Had a rub on your Buddha's belly hope it brings me luck. If I can manage it I will try and put my Buddha on, I am really hopeless at putting pictures on.
Katie good luck on your recent wins. Glad to hear of all your Xmas activities. It's good to have plenty of social events to attend too.
Sheils you are doing well in December with your wins. We all seem to have won something this month.
I see some of you have a very busy Sunday entertaining family, shopping and comping that's my Sunday as well.
Here's hoping we all have a very lucky week this week and win loads of prizes.

Smiling is contagious you catch it like the flu, when someone smiled at me today i started smiling too 。◕‿◕。 i passed around the corner & someone saw my grin & when he smiled i realized i'd passed it on to him, so, if you feel a smile begin don't leave it undetected, let's start an epidemic quick & get the world infected 。◕‿◕。

B.Sue, got a bit mixed up there didn't I? Glad you got the cage, very sensible, you can always stick it on Ebay when you have finished with it, they are very popular. Still I reckon you will have your monies worth out of it.
Glad you are having a good time Katie, take care.
Sounds like you had a really hard day at work Becks.
Not long now until the RESULTS
BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS

This is Dreams Buddha Fire**fly  hope its lucky for you all xx
Sylvia, sorry I didn't come back on here after my last post but thanks for the offer. I spoke to niece and she's gonna come and show me what to do  it's good thinking though about it being Xmas period and posting will be difficult.
My jasper is in the dog house too, I think he's piddled against the Xmas tree in dining room as it was all wet near it! He doesn't normally wee in the house anymore!
Bet you can't wait for Findlay Sue! That was his name wasn't it?
I'm so annoyed with hubby and son, they were fighting to get the iPad and it fell on the floor cracking the side and some of the screen  it will probably split right across but I don't know how to stop it
So glad James won, I remember him busking in town. I hope Ella gets a contract though. Can't believe Chris Maloney spat his dummy out!  (actually ...I can believe it!  )
wingo's wins... PaintWine
A compers work is never done!
Luv n' luck to everyone!

Maybe 2013 will be your year Becks  I had hold of a newborn today and was feeling a tad broody too! At 42 though, I'm far too old!  when I asked Amelia if she wanted a bro or sis she just gave me a dirty look!  (I guess that's a no then!)

Morning,
I'm up early today trying to get loads of comps done in my free internet time as gigs really going up this month - can't think why!
Going to have a busy day with shopping etc too so glad I woke up early.
Had to laugh at Jasper and your tree wingo. It must be confusing for dogs having a tree in the house. We have got all our decorations up now. DH & DD seem to work better together putting them up than DH & I used to do.
We don't have any small kids in our family now Becks, after so many years of having loads as my 2 sissters and I all had "second" families. My youngest sister has a grandson but he lives down South with his mum so she won't see him anyway. Hope you have a little one for next Xmas!
Wishing everyone lots of luck for today - remember the Stella Beauty Comp is still on.

Been up a while as have to get the granddaughter off to school, after calling her 3 times she has actually just got in the shower. That's teenagers for you, now it will be half an hour in the mirror.
Thanks for the lucky Budda Dreams
Wingo hope your DD is better today. Thats good you are getting some help with Ebay, you will be fine once you get the hang of it but probably best left until after the Christmas rush don't you think. Seems the Jasper has disgraced himself too.
Hope you are all OK today

Morning all hope everyone is well. Know most people hate mondays but i quite like the thought that places are back in work and therefore I am more likely to get a win
Sorry folks I know i shouldn't laugh but your naughty dog tales did make me chuckle. Poor dogs
Wishing everyone a lucky day
