    Sounds like the snow has really taken its toll on most of you. :( I've seen some pics on fb too of how deep places are! We are lucky not to have any snow, just bitterly cold and gale force winds. There's been a few trees blew down here & there.
    Just been to gymnastics with the girls but glad to be warm indoors now!
    I've been sneezing non stop too ILC this morning but I don't feel full of cold, it's probably this house!

    Sylvia, don't worry I didn't take any offence about the kitchen, my hubby really needs to get his backside into gear or I'll be moving out instead! :p he just starts something and never finishes it but I can't live without a kitchen ceiling and bare brick walls showing for months on end! If I could post a pic of how it looks I would, you wouldn't believe it! I can't seem to get Photobucket to work on iPad properly. :o

    Ellemm, glad you've heard from your cousin to know she is safe xx

    Your post made me laugh walwin, singing ging gang goolie! :D calor gas is quite expensive, we have one for when boiler is on the blink!

    Hope you manage to get out the house soon Sheils & fire**fly! :)
    Alfie & Dreams, let us know you're both safe xx

    Saw this pic and thought of our Laks ;)

    Brilliant ILC :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    DH finds CSS cream best for his cracked heels and he's tried most of them I think :D

    Had a nice walk in the sunshine - walking on the roads as pavements are still covered with snow. There is water running and dripping everywhere. Had to dig a path to the washing line too but it was worth it as the washing is dry. Have dug out from the path to the road and made a space for the postvan to park tomorrow incase he has any big prizes to bring in :rotfl:

    Nice thinking sheils.

    My !!!!!! of a postie parked the van opposite my house and was there for ages on Friday. Was trying not to look out of the window but sneaked a few peeks then he drove off! Disappointed doesn't even cover it!

    Here's hoping we all get something fun through the post on Monday :j

    Hello!

    I'm brand new in here, so thought I should just drop in and say hi! I guess I got the comping bug when I was 15 and won a competition to have my t-shirt design sold on Ben & Jerrys, since then I haven't done any "serious comping" but just here and there, and ended up winning a fair bit. I've won a book, two tickets to see take that, and the full collection of olympic stamps.

    It wasn't until I had a little bit more time on my hand and I found this board, did I think "all of those were done as a bit of fun" and thought - why not? And I can get involved in some forum-fun too!

    So hello there!
    COMPING WINS:
    (Before "comping") - Ben and Jerry's TShirt, Ben and Jerry's Free Tub, Tickets to see Take That, Teaching Book
    (Started Comping March 2013): Gadget Show Tickets, Breakfast at Frankie and Bennys, Pizza at Varsity
