    Morning all! Throat is still raw this morning, so just had a cup of tea & that should help it feel better soon :)

    With the parcels, I'm going to run my list through twice & I'm noting who has sent back. Any that haven't sent back a parcel by the time I've had 2 runs of my list I'll just move them down off my list & carry on with those that do either run through their lists or send back once sent to :)

    Easier than a roll call & fairer too I think as some people might be too busy to read up in here along with everything else (& I know how I felt when an 'I'm playing' list was started when I went away for a night to Ragdale & I wasn't on there!)


    Stats for the Flaming Boobed One:
    8 Prize Draw entries
    1 x 100g bottle of Snow Fairy Lush 'shower gel for body & hair'

    Generated: 11 prizes but have 15 parcels which haven't moved since 19/12 or before :eek:

    Going to start into my dailies now & advents, get them cleared early so I can go do some wrapping this afternoon.
    Sad because you don't know what to do? :sad: Comping question? Take a look in the Comping Guide to find out :smiley:

    All my parcels seem to be moving quite nicely apart from one that I sent to my snooty daughter :rotfl: I need to have words.

    I got loads from Darren yesterday.

    Kinda overcast here today

    Gonna start winning next Christmas today

    Morning all! Hope everyone had a good nights sleep and is ok.

    I've stopped getting emails when this thread is updated for some reason. Oh well!

    Lazy Sunday morning today... still in my PJs :):) - only got up at 10am which was fab. Gonna get a few jobs done today and then it's our church carol service this evening - I'm playing a snowman in a sketch which should make people laugh. :):) Got lots to get ready for tomorrow too as it's the marketing depts christmas party (fancy dress) and I'm staying at my friend's house after so need to take everything for that and work Tuesday. I'm going as Buzz Lightyear!!!!

    Anyway, off to do comps ending christmas eve and christmas day and then will think about getting dressed. But first I'm off to pass my lush parcels for this morning.
    Life is all about the journey.

    I'm still doing Lush - tend to do what VG does - send back to those that send to me (as I know they're still doing it) and then 'spare' ones out to those on my list that I think are still playing.

    :D:D Postie been this morning - have won a:j Jamie Oliver Xmas Pudding :j (already won a Christmas Cake on a quiz night, and a bottle of brandy on the raffle.....just need to get a turkey....:rotfl: )

    Off to check my lush parcels - not sure how some people are managing to send them between themselves.....:confused:

  • hi All, Im still playing Pass the Parcel, just sent all mine out, i had 7 or so so hopefully that got a few more moving. Must admit, comping is also my guilty secret so i'd appreciate not requesting my friends, although to be honest i don't think anyone on my list would as your all regulars on here :)

    I had the maddest Day yesterday! Went to homebase, Sainsburys, Tesco, Currys, Ikea, TK Max and Brent Cross ... Just call me Super Shopper lol!

    Managed to pick up quite a few bargains including a lovely Blue Harbour (Marks and Spenser) Super soft jumper for my dad, they are really cheap anyway (£9.50) but they had 30% off all knitwear yesterday, for £6.75 they make a gorgeous gift.

    Finally got round to ptuuing up my xmas tree, which makes me feel really festive as I'm not home alone till xmas eve as my housemate has gone back to her parents and i can't get back home till xmas eve so hopefully i'll now have some time to catch up on a few comps eh?
