    haha well done on your wins, its ace isn't it :j:j

    I know exactly what your saying, one of my friends told me to "get a life" when I told her I had started comping.

    7 months later and over 6k's worth of wins ... I laugh when she comes here and looks at my new telly or plays on our ps3 etc etc and I say to her "I got a nice life thanks"


    thanks to everyone who posts the comps for making my life so much the better .. I owe you all one :beer:

    If it wasn't for comping and car boots, we couldnt have half of the material things that we do. I really am grateful and excited what 2010 will bring!

    Well done mrsd!:j

    Hubby is the same, he frowns at me when he sees me filling in a competition form, but he changed his opinion when I won a PSP game last week. I am just waiting to win a biggie!
