    I'm having a bit of a lean spell too. Couldn't win a gnat a pair of spatz.
    2010 was my best year, last year I just won the odd small prize, but chuffed nonetheless.
    That big win is coming though - can feel it in me water ;)

    p.s I didn't have any lucky dust spare, so I am crumbling this up and spreading it around instead - you never know ;)

  • struggling to win so far this year, but had a couple of nice wins last year so when feeling like I never win, just look at my lovely TV or Kenwood mixer I won and get back into it :)

    If I enter it...the wins will come :)
  • My OH has just said Win don't winge! Still waiting for my first win of February. Never mind. Soon be March!

  • I think more people must be doing them (the computer / machine learns) I have entered loads in January no wins yet Hope I'm not in a blacklist database for over entering on too many sites It would be quite easy to set up something like that that although I think it would be unlawful.I think you just keep going You could have nothing for ages then all of a sudden 2 or 3 come along at the same time.

    Wins slowed down last year after three fairly good years - nothing huge, but regular small wins in general that I enjoyed. However, this year is worse still - I haven't had a win at all. Still keeping going, but not enjoying it as much as in the past. I may take a break - there is no point if not enjoying it. I am sure I will do a few competitions and be back in a big way again in the future.
  • Same here :( Had a really good 2011,but since the new year just won some nail foils and dvd box set..Not doing anything different to what I have been doing before,just seems to be a really quiet.
    I'm staying positive by looking at things that I have won and hoping my luck will change.

    Good Luck to all of us :)
    Good Luck Everyone!:beer:
