Fantastic win, a few questions though

What a shame, when someone posts a happy thread about a win, for it to be spoilt by self-centred, avaricious people.
Why not just be happy for the OP? Comping is a fun hobby as far as I'm concerned, and any wins are purely a bonus.
Exactly!
It's always lovely to hear of people's wins on here and I am genuinely happy for all of them.
Comping should be a fun hobby. Winning things is just a bonus.:)2019 Wins

well done melton :j
how do you win? you enter, you're either lucky or you're not, simples!!!:j It doesn't get any better than this :j0 -
Maybe it's the lack of SHARING that's the problem
Comments like this do not do any good,
I dont know whats up this person and other who just seem to want to moan???
Dont worry melton from all of us who care about others a big well done, i like many cant wait for my first big win - its gotta be encouraging for you to keep on..
1 or 2 of us on here dont feel like it sometimes, but its the nice comments like the few above that 'keep us comping'
Never listen to anyone who moans - i sometime take it to heart but am learning to 'dismiss' the odd person who likes trouble, must say something about their personal life..
Well done melton (i love melton mowbrey porkie pie yummy)Still comping, after 2 heart attacks 4th feb & 6th feb, and a stent put in.. 45 years old only:eek:0 -

Im too far north to get nice ones unfortunately..
I bet this week you will do more comps than ever, and good luck, im sure like many others our time will come,
im glad ive had some good tips from certain people on here who have 'helped' me to start winning (suprisingly from comps posted elsewhere)
If you ever come to staffordshire (not sure why anyone would lol) be sure to pm me and bring a massive porkie pie!!
Good luck for the coming week!!Still comping, after 2 heart attacks 4th feb & 6th feb, and a stent put in.. 45 years old only:eek:0 -

I don't know where you have the idea that I am moaning from?!
Karma - it's this wonderful thing - give time & effort into helping others and you will be rewarded. Many of the regular posters on here (EG those who help and share) have won lots of big prizes. I was just suggesting that maybe you weren't because you don't believe in doing just that.
End of conversation between you & me.
And Melton82 - I apologise, I forgot to congratulate you in my post, have edited it now but will do it again here. I love it when an MSEr wins a biggie - whether they be a "newbie" or someone who makes an effort on these boards by finding & sharing comps
Good luck to all those who do so tooThanks to all posters :A0 -
Well done on your win.....I won perfume a few years ago from WOTV and it was with me in a few days following the WEM. I guess though perfume is easy to send out than your prize.
Enjoy xThe shinbone is a device for finding furniture in a dark room.:TBig thanks to all competition posters:T0
