    Cathyj.Absolute wins to the value over a specific amount (£100?)are barred for 6 months. Your tickets would not have reached that limit. I won a comp when they were called virgin and they then barred you for a year!!!

    LOL @ wokkies & the rat powder :) And your right Nicky, its not good :( He's been back a few hours. So far he has taken over my pc, his brothers' room, the tv and eaten everything not nailed down. DH has taken to wearing his mp3 everywhere to drown out the noise Jamie creates!!! You know how teeenage boys can't talk or even shout, they bellow everything!!! He got a letter from RBS offering him the chance to go to a meeting to put his case re his not being kept on after his probation period is up. He said "stuff that for a game of soldiers" and tore up the letter. :confused:Oh, the joys of being the parent of an 18 year old baby :)

    I so wish I could tell you it gets better in 5/7 years time but I can't :p

    I think mine are particularly immature at 25 and 23 because they live at home, although DD has had her Dad move her 27 times to date!!! no joke, he really has, some of the times due to uni ie change of halls/holidays/different digs, couple of times due to failed co-habiting (can't blame the poor blokes she's freakin hard to live with :rotfl:) few times to live with a freind etc, she has been back for 6 months now and has gone back into stroppy teenage mode so easily, I keep thinking to myself "I had a 5 and 3 year old when I was your age, for heavens sake grow up!" :rolleyes:
    That ain't working! That's the way to do it, money for nothing and TV's for free ;)

    I phone OH all day to see if anything arrives, although he'd text me if it had lol

    I'm caught up with comps but need to get ahead as a busy few weeks coming up :eek:

    is it all radio stations or just a select few, so once you have reached your quota do you have to enter under a different name?

    Evening all. Hope all are well. Love to those who specially need it tonight. Brrrr so cold. Just got home from work - had an event this evening. Had free food though so at least I've eaten (very well actually... hot buffet and copious amounts of tea and orange juice!).

    Win needed over here if there are any going spare...!
    Life is all about the journey.
