    hiya guys :D
    I feel relieved now, Korky, I needed you yesterday: had a frog-spider outside my window...
    Gemma, hope you have a lovely time x :j:j how exciting
    I was looking for McCoys promotional packs today but found none :o
    I need coffee...was so tired in the morning....I need to think of how to make Mondays less horrible: a treat or something..
    Hope everyone is catching up ok with the end-of-month comps. I did them at stages but I must have missed a few, going to go and check if I missed any of interest.

    edit: yayyy well done Cathy!

    aww, i'm sorry NNW, have been trying to get on with all the comps & posting the usual ones i post but had a really bad week last week & past few days, got a few family probs with little bro & niece has split up with her OH, they've been together a long time, so she's really upset icon9.gif having to sell the house & sort things out,
    so been really busy,
    hope your little frog spider is ok :D get a feather duster & flick the cobweb away, she'll go make a new one somewhere else :D
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    Your poor niece. Had they been together long?

    Hope things get sorted with your little brother.
    It is a scientific fact that your body will not absorb calories if you take it from another person's plate.

  • :eek::eek::eek::eek: 'get your feather duster' :rotfl::rotfl:

    Really sorry you had a bad week. Hope your niece is ok, break-ups can be terrible but I hope that whatever she does, it turns out to be the best for her. I am sure she will get all your support x
    Thanks a lot for doing the comps despite that x I hope you get a lovely win to cheer you up. There are a few exciting comps :D I like the 1 of many :j:j:o

  • Cathy, am glad you feel more positive but it is natural to worry sometimes x Well, I think so anyway :o but I know what you mean about not wanting to dwell on things. I need to learn to stay positive myself ...
