    Hello everyone! I am back! I am going to take the plunge and start doing all the comps again. Last time I started from the last page and worked my way through so I just had to do the newly posted ones every day. Is this a good way or is it better to search for date ending?

    I hope everyone is well and happy. I have moved house and it is much better to have some space. DD started nursery school so I have an hour in the afternoon to myself (well should be doing housework but who cares).

    I am glad to be back. Will see how I feel after plowing through all the comps lol!

    Hope everyone has a lucky day today Happy Happy Joy Joy Happy Happy Joy Joy Happy Happy Joy Joy Happy Joy

    Oooh I'm buzzing!! I got a letter today to say I'd won an all inc hol to Crete for 4!! :j :j They tried contacting me in august but I didnt receive the letter then! I'm so happy as we lost out on the mini cruise cos there was no availability on return journey. This will be a much needed holiday! :D
    I only called in post office on my way home from work & picked up a passport form so I must have sensed I was going to win a hol! :rotfl:

    WB to compin sphynx & Amilucky ;)

    Katie, glad you got your money changed. Cant believe the fake fiver came form the post office! Wonder how many more fake ones they've given out!
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    Hi everyone,

    I don't come in here very often but I'm here to ask for your help.

    A really sad story of a lost dog https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/2789494

    Thre's been a facebook group set up to raise the profile and I'm asking all of you who use face book if you'd join the group. The reason being is that the media is more likely to run the story if Foxy has a large following.

    If you can mention it to as many people as possible, that would be brilliant.
    Many thanks for reading :A
