Use the search to find them or Press the New Topic view, and you will keep up with whatever is posted.

Sorry, it'll be a none starter - takes people enought time posting, without trying to find your post as well.

seems to me the forum works fine as it is, if we start having separate threads for everything it will be far too messy.

happy new year to you all.

I have a question about comp wins. How do you explain them to friends and family. Do you tell them you won a competition or that you brought them?

thanks:beer:

Can't see this happening.

Sorry that's not the way the forum works - there is a comping guide which will help you use the search facility to find the comps.

This thread will be a mess and it will be impossible to maintain - as there will be no way of monitoring the end dates etc.

Why the sudden increase in bumping threads in the main Competitions Time Board?

Just lately every other comp seems to be bumped up several times with some petty comment. There are even one or two threads that have become personal chat threads for some members.

I find if you are up to date with comps, using the NEW TOPIC Button takes away the hassle of threads bumping.

That's really good advice, I don't think I've ever used that button. Thanks.

Tell them you won them. Family used to take the mick as I spent so much time entering - not any more, as they have reaped the benefit. They know that they will get exceptionally good presents, a lot more than I can afford/would spend.

You'll also get the comments I never win anything - to which the reply is "Do you ever enter any competitions, you have to be in it to win it!"
