    Just follow some of the people who have given their names on here - you'll soon have more than you can cope with. Don't worry about trying to find them. Don't retweet from their tweets, copy & paste them.

    I usually have 2 browser pages open side by side, one for twitter on my home page and one I am comping from (which usually ends up with loads of open tabs). I can then just highlight, and drag & drop the tweet into my home page.

    Thanks, that's how I've been doing it too, did wonder if this was the right way but seemed easiest for me. Also follow competition club and play woohoo bingo in the club room where a lot of mse twitters are playing to win vouchers for xmas.

    I know there's tweetdeck, and I used it before, but only had a small screen. I must have a go with it again, as I treated myself to a widescreen a couple of weeks ago - too many to catch up, so will have a try when I'm back up to date. Takes a while for things to sink in with me:D
  • Thanks guys I didn't think of searching and just did it and realised I've won HOP Pack & £20 Odeon vouchers just emailed them LOL

    Hi hun which box do you use?? I see the search box but that just brings up other people with the same name as me?? LOL Obviously the wrong "search box"!!

    Sorry not very good with FB.

    Hiya
    That is the right search box but if you type in your name, then click on where it says "see more results for....." at the bottom of the drop down screen. Then scroll down that page to where it says 'pots by friends' If a page you like has mentioned you it'll show up there. Do it regularly as it only shows recent posts. HTH.
    :AThanks to all those who post comps:A

    Could somebody tell me how you retweet more than once as twitter will say that you have already said that? Thank you.

    Just alter the tweet by adding a space or full stop - knock out 1 letter - just don't change the main bits
