For a few moments I thought I'd won...

The phone rang yesterday morning and it said that it was the BT text-messaging service (or something like that ?) so I thought it was about one of the comps I'd entered...
I've entered my home number in the mobile number box where it was allowed coz I hardly ever used my mobile...
But it was from my bluddy dentist saying "don't forget your appointment on Thursday" :rolleyes2 :o:o:o :rotfl:
I cringed with embarrassment even though there was no-one here to see it at the time :confused:
You should never call somebody else a nerd or geek because everybody (even YOU !!!) is an
"anorak" about something whether it's trains, computers, football, shoes or celebs :p :rotfl:

    Just loving comping and the good guys here!
  • That's hilarious! I guess we are all the same. I only started comping about six weeks ago and have become obsessed with the movements of the postman. He often doesn't come until 1.00 or 2.00 p.m. by which time I have been up and down the stairs about five times (we live in a flat...)

    My email inbox has never been so busy - I opt in to newsletters etc in the hope that the comp organisers will like me more and let me win! Every five minutes I get some new, completely useless bit of information to delete but it gives me a glimmer of hope every time I see 8 emails in my inbox!! what a sad case - Oh, well, back to work in a couple of weeks which will leave less time for this kind of obsessive behaviour
