  • Morning guys! Wasn't on yesterday as was playing with the kids all day on the Wii and then had work last night!! My siser is taking the kds out this afternoon and we can't decide whether to go out for lunch or ....stay in;) ;) !!!

    Add me into this losing weight malarky!! Sure I will do loads more exercise once I find a WiiFit under £90:eek: !! Going to try local supermarkets and shops today and keep your fingers crossed for me!!! Have got the pop up on the wiiconsole website thing, PP, cheers - but the cheapest is £95 from some random place I've never heard off!!
    Is it really that good?? Is that why everyone is hampering after one?? Or is it just hype?? I've got the Samba di Amigo game and thats a workout in itself!! hehe!!

    Just about to stick my slow cooker on with some leftover lamb to do a stewything for tea....whats everyone else up to??
    Made it - 15 years married!! Finally!! xx:beer:
  • Hello all,

    Im relatively new to entering comps- started mid Oct and have won a few things now since the start of Dec.

    At first, when I found this forum, I started at pg X and worked my way down to the first page, then daily entered all new comps, which eventually meant i was viewing all new posts added daily.

    I have continued to use this method, but my question is- is there a more full proof method/ better technique to viewing /entering the comps posted? I have tried searching by "posts ending" but found it easier to enter as they are posted.

    I hope this is the correct place to post my question/discussion...apologies if not.

    Any suggestions/tips from thoese more experienced will be greatly appreciated.

    Thats exactly how I have always entered, I have a good routine which most of the time I stick to. The only thing about it is if you have a few days off (holiday etc) then you're miles behind but I just start off from where I was upto and work my way forward again. When I have had enough I make a note of where I am upto (name of comp, date & time) and then carry on the next day until i'm fully caught up! I much prefer to do it this way but a lot of people go by ending date instead.

    NOW IN COMPING SEMI-RETIREMENT! :D

    Me too Kim_Possible / littleholly... work from the ones added since I last logged on (order by thread start date). Although I had about three weeks off in November/December so I did so a few comps ending days, including 31st December which took ages but as there were so many I hadn't entered it was (hopefully) worth it! :):)
    Life is all about the journey.

    :hello: Everyone,

    Morning :) Just woke up at 9am :) went to bed 10pm after watching the Lovely Take That on TMF on their ultimate tour,It was fantastic :) they had a hollogram of Robbie Williams at the start of Could It be Magic or so I thought.I am going to have a nice day today,not doing much shopping as I went to M&S yesterday and I was shattered when I got home,It took an hour to get there on bus and hour back but it was worth it :)


    love and light,

    Katie xxx

  • Wokkies is big woks ok?
    Kim just make sure you subscribe to the thread than its easy to see any you've missed even if theyve been bumped - I was working backwards then moved house so am still catching up lol
    BTW I'm eating mince pies - only cos I hate waste and they'll go out of date soon ;)
    I've given tix away on freecycle that I won and then hubby wouldnt go - that count towards the brownie points?
    Happy with any wins this year :A

    :hello: Michelle,


    I bet you are enjoying your mincepie? Mum made some for christmas which were lovely and I had one,but I prefer brought mincepie to homemade ones :) Mum didnt mind though and she wasnt offended.Not off to London now for a short holiday and I dont mind because I was in two minds the other day and rang mum to say I wasnt going to go and dad has hurt his leg and we would have had to walk loads and it would hurt dad so none of us are going now and I am not disappointed ether.

    Katie :)
