  • Hi everyone, long time no see!!!

    Just popped in to let you all know i'm back and ready to start comping again :)

    had a hectic year with redundancy and new job, but both kids are at school now and i get a whole day to myself, so im ready to start entering and finding competitions again.

    Hope everyone is well FG xx

    Crikey, not seen you for a long time! I thought you'd moved to Mars or something. :rotfl:
    Welcome back. :D

    NOW IN COMPING SEMI-RETIREMENT! :D

    T-shirt
    T-shirt
    Cd
    DVD
    Yummy Bar
    Tickets to a pokemon event
    Tickets to a wedding event
    Tickets to meet some rock stars :)

    MELVIS: I got it too, was it a wedding comp?
  • Morning All,

    Woke up feeling yeughy, got a tickly throat, runny eyes & nose (tmi I'm sorry!) Youall have to stop coughing on your screens - its catching!!!!:rotfl:

    On the plus side I won on Euromillions last night - £7.40 ;) That's 10p less than we spent on tickets :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I got a strange letter this morning. It said that I had an old pensions policy (?) and the company were trying to trace me as I would be due some compensation if I was the right person. It was addressed to my maiden name and came via Child Benefit people (due to my NI number I suppose?). I don't think its a scam as its a massive company. They said if I was the right person it was worth at least £500 :eek: . They want a note of my married name and previous addresses going back 20 years! Don't really know what to make of it?

    T & bella (((((((((((((((((((((((MORE HUGE HUGS)))))))))))))))))))))))

    If you're unsure, maybe give them a ring for more info or take the letter to citizens advice?
