    yes it's very addictive. I don't know if you could make a living from it though.

    Is there a prize for answering this question? :rotfl:

    Yes it is addictive, although I'm training myself to do a few in the morning between chores & then I catch up with any I've missed on a Sunday when the comps are quiet

    I am feeling a bit fed up with having a long list of non recived prizes. i have been chasing some up today. I got an email back to say that the Amazon/ born free animal adoption packs should be sent out by Friday. I know we had a few winners. I have not heard anything from the'300' comp or ebookers.

    I will carry on with my list .... :rolleyes: :rotfl:

    Update: phoned ebookers and they were very apologetic. Said they would send voucher staright out. It definately pays to chase up prizes.

    I've just had one of these, but mine was relating to issue 13.:eek: maybe there have been lots of failures because, thinking about it, there don't seem to be as many RP winners lately. :confused:
    Considering issue 20 answers have been posted today, they seem a bit slow though, don't you think?

    I know my issue 11 was delivered fine because I won from it!

    Normally you get an email to say that your entry has been received - did you maybe not receive this?
