    :AThanks to all those who post comps:A
  • Hey all!
    Have done all current updates (with difficulty not sure what MSE have done to editing a post but it was a very confusing HTML piece rather than showing me how it should look!)
    Hope you've all enjoyed the challenge this year :) and happy comping for next year
  • Just had a look back at my eleven (number 1702) & going through them as I haven't been keeping up to date! They were:

    1) Apple I-pad - no luck yet!
    2) Family Holiday (me, OH & DD - she's 1, so most likely this would be a UK break) - Won a trip to Lapland to take next year :)
    3) Holiday for me & OH (happy with this being just a short break!) - Won two London hotel breaks and one Manchester :)
    4) TV
    5) Something for the house (we're renovating at the moment, so any bathroom/kitchen/B&Q vouchers or similar would come in handy!) - Won various vouchers that we've put towards the house
    6) Books or toys for DD - a couple of books and Let's Rock Elmo :)
    7) A fold-up buggy for DD (we have a pram atm, but would like a fold-up buggy for quick trips out in the car) - Have since decided that this is not something I want, so am pleased to not have won one!
    8) Cash win - won about £1000 altogether in cash over the year - very happy with that!
    9) A Christmas or Birthday present for the family - Won Spa vouchers which I gave to my mum and auntie for Christmas :)
    10) PS3
    11) Sky HD

    Ending the year with 6 out of 11 and they are all wonderful prizes so I am more than pleased with that :) Thank you to all posters, especially fortuna93 for updating the post!
