    I think wine (maybe mulled to get us festive!) will be needed with these!

    Thank goodness for this support group, day 2 of advents and I'm almost pulling my hair out:o
    Everything has gone against me today, cursor on laptop has decided it will work independantly from me, then a virus which meant putting lappie back to factory settings and then having to install everything again, got lappie up and running eventually and dsx3 comes in from school and says "oh good, laptop is working again" and quickly signs on to look at lolbot etc, and, the bl@@dy phone has not stopped ringing:mad:
    To top everything of I have just had a migraine start, so have taken 2 co-codomal and will attempt to do advents in a sleepy blur:D
    Stuff the kids tea tonight, I will get these comps done:rotfl:

    Happy adventing everyone xxxxx

  • Yep have to agree can't keep up with these advents, normal comps, facebook comps, twitter comps and have to work to earn a crust! Could do with the month of December off to catch up! Housework will have to be left. I am 40 pages behind did catch up the other day!! So many comps. Oh well onwards we go.

    Good luck all!!!
    Good Luck to everyone

    My computer is being so bloody temperamental, took it to the repairers today so God know how it'll be before I can do go back to comping properly! Only 2 weeks comping and I'm addicted. Resorting to using my iPod touch to enter comps but cant enter FB ones or ones that require flash player!

    How will I win if I can't enter?????
    You'll have to speak up; I'm wearing a towel
