    Crumbs.... I don't believe it. Somebody tell me what to do next! Do I withdraw the winnings straight away?

    Deposit enough to make it up to at least £20 and then withdraw.

    well done sea
    i withdrew mine yesterday then won some more and tried to draw it back, add the new winning on then transfer it, and found that you can only withdraw it once every 24 hrs so now i'm waiting till i'm ready to log off then i'll do both day's winnings, but i guess its each to their own
    just thought i'd let you all know i'm codswallop on there.

    Its best to withdraw if you can subject to the 24hr rule so that you can take advantage of any bonuses you may receive otherwise if you have a real cash balance you will lose the benefit of any bonus.

    hypno - ps - I've not mentioned it - but definitely think you should go skiing!

    I also like the fact you are tackling the mortgage. If I was in a perm job I would too - but for now I'm just clearing the cards! My mortgage is 5.99% interest only so if 0% cards were guaranteed to stay around I would be better off paying the mortgage too!

    Thanks everyone! I'm amazed. How do you work out which games are free though?

    The price on the bit where you buy tickets says "free" and is bright pink - can't miss it when it happens!

    SH, I have been 6 years paying only interest on the mortgage which means that I have paid over £50,000 but have absolutely nothing to show for it - that scared me somewhat, so I decided then that I have to catch up and get focused on the bigger picture, rather than leaving the mortgage as something that would wait another day!

    They are random one per hour in each room from 6pm onwards.
    During the day just in Knights lounge usually they play early in the hour though and they are coloured pink on the buy now so you cant miss em.

    I keep missing them play because I keep freezing and have to log out :mad:
