    Hi all, can I join you please?
    I haven't won anything for months despite entering loads of comps that MSE's post - my time will come:)

    Can anyone help with a quiz - no prize - it was a pub quiz and my friend won't tell me the answer.

    A teenager was grounded by her parents for doing something bad,
    but she carried on doing it and earned over a million pounds.
    What did she do?

    Any help please
    :grouphug: A smile, a 'please' and a 'thank you' cost nothing

    Thank you for that toniq - I have read through the link but it didn't say she was 'grounded' for doing 'something', then earned a £1m.
    Still puzzled. I'll strangle my friend if she doesn't tell me the answer soon!!!!

    Didnt watch strictly sid, but just watched xfactor. :) I think wagner's gonna have to go! Some of them were quite good tonight.

    Dontskipit...was it the lottery maybe she was doing? You have to be 16 dont you, so maybe she was younger!

    Hi Wingo, Laks and everyone up :kisses3:

    Wingo :o:o:o:o Aaaargh, right, none of the horses in the 6 bets I placed came anywhere, not even in the first three places :eek::eek: SOOO disappointed! Having wasted so much money, I dared not put any more but I LOVED 'Dream Performance' ...and didn't put it on and it came first 50-1!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG now anyway no one believes me, least of all, him! I honestly thought of that man who won £1 million out of a 50p accumulator many years ago and I remember one of his horses was called 'Dreams come true' and I thought here's my winner :D

    Then to down my sorrows, I got half a bottle of gin :D:D:D only second time I have ever had gin....gin, tonic water and [STRIKE]eyes [/STRIKE] :eek: meant 'ice' God, sorry:rotfl::rotfl::beer:

    Ok here's my verdict on the Xfactor

    Loved Rebecca, Aidan (?), and Mary gave me goosebumps :o was my favourite

    Kate was awful, so was Wagner ? or Wanger? , so was someone else I can't remember ....:o Oh sorry the Italian lad ..

    The boys group just destroyed Coldplay's song in my honest opinion ..NOTHING matches up to Viva La Vida, Chris Martin's version ..OMG noway :D

    Right rant over ..now I hope you are all having a great Saturday x

    Back again looking at the comps and trying to summon up some effort. I admire Lakshmi for such consistency and motivation!
