    I gave up comping, well work commitments meant I couldn't devote too much time to it - so really I didn't comp very much last year and only properly started like I used to at the start of Feb 2012.

    Obviously Feb was a quiet month (2 mascaras I think) but this month I've won about £1500 worth of prizes (3 prizes)....I think the break did me good and now, with having time on my hands whilst the kids are at school, I'm back at it like I used to a few years ago.

    Hope you all find your mojo's - maybe take a break for a few weeks and start afresh.

    I totally feel the same, maybe all our mojos are away on holiday somewhere together :rotfl:

    I haven't comped that much either, but on the plus side im starting to get a tan... rather than my normal pale (sat in front of computer comping) face :D

    Anyway, lots and lots of luck to everyone who needs a bit extra x x

    Hope you all get your mojos back soon!! Maybe try entering for some cheap and chearful prizes that not many people enter? It makes the long gaps between better prizes more bearable :D
    I smile because I have absolutely no idea what's going on

    I think we all have times when we lose it and then is a good time to take a break. If you are not enjoying it, then it is not worth doing. Remember comping is a hobby and should be enjoyable. I had a break for several months and am enjoying entering again now, but I don't worry if I miss a few days or anything.
