    I'm ok thanks, trundling along as I can be, trying to make a few decisions here and there (where to move to, whether to take a new photography course, move in with OH or not, whether to quit my job or not, the usual ;) ) trying to take each day as it comes but I shouldn't complain :) x

    Very low today myself (gone to the bank expecting to draw out my final £10 until I get paid and instead I find all of my direct debits were taken out over the weekend so I'm now over my overdraft limit. GOODY!) so trying to cheer myself up with comps.

    How long were you guys comping before your first win? Obviously it varies but I was just wondering...give me a little good news/pick me up? x

    Hi Everyone! I'm sure this has been posted before, but i'm after picking all you experienced comper's brains ;)

    Whenever a comp asks for a phone no. I always put my mobile no. down...... but do you think this jeopardises your chances of winning.... I wont put my home no. down (for obvious reasons), and i,m wondering wether these entries get binned. Interested in what everyone else thinks......Apologies if this is raking over old ground.

    Happy comping All! :)

    hi, i always use my moby number & have had lots of winning calls on it :)

    ETA..
    There's some really good info regarding it in the comping guide, hth x

    Sorry to hear you are in such pain kkk I know just how you feel and hope that they can sort you out when you finally get to the specialist next week.

    I am very very down at the mo and can't quite seem to get myself out of it. It doesn't help that I haven't won much this month nor that I am still waiting on stuff I won in Nove and Jan (one was a xmas comp but I only have the name Archant and they own loads of newspapers and what have you so can't even find which one it was to chase up).

    Emailed Sugar again about the Nov win as the email I sent to Rhian bounced back to say she no longer works there.

    Hope I cheer up soon or I may not even bother getting out of bed for a while. Even losing heart about comping now as well.

    Off to check my emails to see if there are any wins lurking there.
    If at first you don't succeed try, try, try again.

    :hello: Everyone,

    Good Afternoon! Hope all is well,I had a nice time with my boyfriend for valentines day and it was wonderful,went to mums for a nice lunch,then a causeway group and then he came to mine and saw a film,in the early hours this morning he was very poorly and had a nasty virus,Rang parents to say could Dad take him home in the car as he wasnt well to travel by bus and Dad very kindly did so for me which was nice.I had dinner out at mcdonalds before I went home too.Cleaned my flat and its sparkling.My boyfriend is much better and resting.He knows that I love him as well as he saw how much I cared about him last night which I do and that made me proud.He had given me flowers and a frame which contains a photo of us together a nice one and some silk roses so I can keep it forever and a nice valentines day card.Did log on to twitter and got a message from Jenni12 on twitter that I had won a nice prize on facebook and it was £50 of Molton Brown vouchers.

    love and light,

    Katie xxx

    Thanks Katie that's lovely of you. I'm mainly looking forward to being in the winners club and hopefully will win something that won't just benefit me as I have a lot of awesome friends I should see more of/do more with. So fingers crossed I'll get some fun prizes to share. I've had to bow out of some things that are very important so I'd like to be able to make it up to them in some small way :)

    Hope everyone else has an enjoyable monday. Emxx
