I'm still quite new to this and was feeling very disheartened that I had won nothing, not even an instant win.
I keep a tally of how many comps are ending on what day and had my fingers crossed because I have loads ending today and tomorrow.
I came home and had a false alarm. I had an email regarding a comp and for a moment I thought I won but it turned out to be an email saying that I had succesfully entered a comp and they were just emailing me to let me know due to errors on the website sending an email saying the answer was wrong..
Anyway. Was feeling like giving up after the false alarm when I saw my galaxy code I requested last night. I entered it thinking "here we go again...another sorry not this time page" and lo and behold! I won a book!!!
I know it's only a little thing and loads of people have won them but it cheered me right up and i'm delighted. It's actually the first time I have won anything EVER.
Thanks to all that post. Your all lovelly!

Where have my manners gone? They went flying out the window in all this excitement!. Thank you to the lovely person who posted the comp. now for one of those instant win choccies!!!
