    Discovering my email provider is probably not sending any emails so I'm having to migrate my logins/forward my mail instead of doing any comping.

    Also discovering the forwarding isn't working either
    Golly, I've got the newt pregnant...

    **Gulp**

    Sites like later life http://www.laterlife.com/laterlife-competition-stephen-hawking.htm that have a 'clear form and restart' clicky right beside the 'submit' clicky! Why oh why????

    How many times have you filled in the form then pressed the 'clear' clicky by accident? DOH! I do it all the time and I end up growling like a Gremlin!

    Yes , and when the rafflecopter doesn't show a name - makes you think there maybe isn't a winner after all (annoying if you have tweeted daily for months too!) :eek::eek::eek:

    Yes!

    I've just started running rafflecoptor competitions on my FB page and blog and I'm making sure I draw the winner as soon as possible and announce them on the widget as I know that it annoys me when a winner isn't showing for weeks and weeks and sometimes a winner doesn't show at all!

  • Reading sob stories... the Capital/Heart fm comments make me laugh the most.

    "I really need this £25 iTunes voucher as my uncles friends cousin's dog had to be put down 6 months ago and it would really cheer me up"

    I also wonder if anyone ever won a newsletter sign up prize?!
