    Don't sweat it softpad, we all have our own opinions & there's so many of us in here at the mo' that you will get differing opinions if you ask a question.

    And don't worry - it doesn't make you unpopular - welcome to the Compers Inn. :beer:

    And to you Chris - a little ditty for you:

    'I'm the real chris
    yes I'm the real chris...

    ... won't the real chris please stand up, please stand up, please stand up'

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    OMG! I'm so glad I'm not the only one that thought that!! I've been singing it ever since Chris posted :rotfl:
    That ain't working! That's the way to do it, money for nothing and TV's for free ;)
  • he he he.. I am into this kidnapping lark now too !!

    I so should be doing comps, you lot are a bad influence !!!
    Thanks to all posters and contributers :beer:
  • I don't usually post on here (too shy) but read it constantly - I unfortunately have had to sell some great comp wins that I have received - but that is so that hubbie and I can eat and actually survive a month!!!! Hopefully now that we have, sadly, sold our house and are living in rented accommodation we can get to keep any prizes we win.

    Even though, I am very careful about what I enter and do still get annoyed (probably completely unjustly) when people enter competitions for something they have no interest in - even though a lot of the time the posts are for runners up prizes.

    I have also been extremely lucky that I won tickets for a concert that there is no way we could have afforded at the time - but it was our first evening out in 4 years and we had such a brilliant time (even if we did have to find the £8 for parking).

    I really don't want to sound like I am having a go, but there are so many different reasons for what each person decides to do with their prizes. As long as it is a great community and everyone is in the majority happy with their experience, is that not a good outcome? Quite often it is a case of ignoring what other people are doing and considering what you want out of the experience :-)
