    Hi all

    I can't believe how very cold it has been here today. Heating is staying on lol

    Redbull email the guy back and tell him the landlord has to take him to court to repossess and he can get an extension to stay that should stop him emailing you again what a scam

    Haven't managed many comps the last few days and I have been trying to find out how to hide my isp addy and that so I can surf anonymously but there are so many free programmes to do tis it left y head reeling think I need an idiot proofs guide lol

    Hope everyone is having some luck today.

    Happy Happy Joy Joy Happy Happy Joy Joy Happy Happy Joy Joy Happy Happy Joy Joy Happy Happy Joy Monday

    I am about to be made homeless and I desperately need your help.
    I have an old arthritic Labrador and if we are turned out onto the strret in this weather it will kill the poor old boy.
    If you can just let me have 10 pounds, you will get it back soon.
    Kind Regards

    Wasn't sure Redbull. Glad you can laugh about these things - I get a bit worried when I get things like that. Hate my email address being available to people I don't know.
    Are you feeling better today?

    Just went into my i-tunes account to see if the kids had left any of my £50 win and there was enough for OH and I to get a Xmas song each! I got "Grandma got run over by a reindeer" and OH got "Fairytale of New York". Managed to get "Parisian Walkways" too - my win after all! Just need to win an i-pod now!!!

  • I'm sure I'll get shouted at for this and probably banned or condemned to an eternal spice girls concert but I dont know where else to put it.
    I've only just started trying these competitions - haven't won anything yet and to be honest having survived 2 brushes with death I think my luck is all used up!!! - but I would like to say an enormous thankyou to all those people who post these competitions and answers The generosity and altruism of you all is quite astonishing and a searchlight in the dark and stormy seas that life sometimes seems.
    thankyou.
    Last win 2013!! Oh well.

    Many thanks to our wonderful posters and apologies to the mods for all the postings I've made which then turned out that I've been pipped at the post.

    Yip Redbull I'm Scottish too - know all about the coos tail! I'm really not organised either - my parents have birthdays in November which never helps. Mum will be 70 on the 24th and I still don't have a main present for her. Got a lovely model of my nephews dog for her (she loves him)from the kids but that is it. I'm looking forward to going to Amsterdam on 28th though - Xmas can wait.

  • Keep at it...your time will come :)

    I started comping months ago and then last week i had 3 wins all of a sudden.

    Remember the more you enter the more chance you have of winning.

    Good luck :)
