    Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who posts on the competitions board.

    I have been laid up with a hip injury for months and have been entering hundreds of competitions via this site to keep myself occupied - but was about to give up, as I was winning absoluately nothing.

    But on Thursday and Friday, I received winning text messages from strongbow and yesterday a first prize call from Strongbow - so now just waiting to see what I have won.

    And the postman just came with the The Tale Of Despereaux prize as posted by Welshdeedee - thank you (sorry I can't post links).

    So thank you everyone.

    Carolan

    Well done you!! :beer:
