    Hi everyone, mind if I jump into the Compers Inn?
    I've decided my 2011 hobby is going to be comping, so I'm using these last few days of 2010 to get myself well versed in the process of getting started!! :)

    I'm hoping you guys won't mind the odd question thrown into the mix, but I'm doing my homework reading all the stickies for now.

    Thanks and good luck to all!!! :D

    Hi Nellis,

    Glad you are going to join us. Its great you are swatting up - I didn't and did loads wrong and I didn't find this inn or avatars for months! Love chatting to people in here just as much as comping and it is great to share news of wins etc with each other.

    Thanks Spizmo - you won't believe this but the first two were entered on the same day and from the same Keystore shop! Thought I had made a mistake entering both as the first was for a holiday for 2 - they gave me £1,000 instead luckily! The T- in the Park tickets was for when I was on holiday so was giving them away and Royal Mail "misplaced" them! Had to go to Review Panel to make them pay up so got the cash for that too!:)

    Hi everyone :wave:

    Been having a bit of a lazy day (again :o) snuggled up on sofa just watching movies with the kids and piggin out on chocs! :D

    Fin, skippy, korky, Laks...add me to that new years eve party. I let the new year in with the kids while OH falls asleep on the settee (he's so predictable!). We usually have a little karaoke but I guess that will be out the question this year now the kids have the kinnect!

    Welcome Nellis, you've been a member since 2005 and not become a comp addict yet? :p Good luck, hope he prizes start rolling in for you :)
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    Hi wingo,

    Your NYE sounds as exciting as mine usually is. OH is always determined we won't drink too much early on so by midnight I am usually grumpy, sober and ready for bed! Know what you mean about the chocs.
