    Elle - have you conceived those scones yet? :rotfl:

    Just watched Fright Night 2 - jumpy moments from the start :eek: (another rental code win)


    Why is it that yellow bananas are often on the turn within a couple of days, yet my bananas are stuck on green?

    Welcome back Penelope :wave: I remember you :) I'm another 'as and when' comper now I'm afraid, I try and get a few done on a night but I'm usually too tired or no motivation by then!

    Ellemm, well done on your win :j Lovely win for someone in your family. I found myself entering a baby comp for one of the teachers at work the other day! She has finally conceived after years of trying :) Lovely news!

    BSue, I'm glad you got the currys win so quick :) I keep entering and then thinking...what if I didn't get it for Xmas!

    Congrats on your win purple_skull :j (I totally forgot what it was you said though without scrolling back! :o) It's quite hard trying to keep up now! :D

    Alfie, glad you had a good week with the family too. Sounds like puddy had a good time as well! :)

    Sheils, I meant to say...the girl who I posted about on fb from our area (the 15 yr old cancer sufferer) who wanted her single to be well known on you tube...well I'm afraid she passed away at the weekend. Poor girl xx

    Ellemm, lucky you getting to go back to Crete! :D I don't blame you getting away from cold weather!

    Hope the zoo is coping well fire**fly ;) I'm sure you're looking after them still :)

    Nothing in post for me today and I still haven't received the Percy Jackson win from aug that was meant to be sent out again! :( Looks like another email to send!
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    Welcome back :) I go through the board every day and save to folders in my browser eg NOVEMBER, DECEMBER and go through them when I have time and especially at the weekend when fewer new comps get posted.

    Oh thank you so much for this idea! I got through so many more pages today by setting aside the ones that aren't at their due date. :beer:

    Hope everyone has had a good day. Feeling a bit more up to date now.

    Know what you mean about bananas ILC - they always seem to be ready at the same time no matter what you do!
    Big bit about the hotel prices for the Commonwealth Games on TV just now.

    Saw that about the girl dying wingo - so sad. Hope you get the Percy Jackson prize soon. I have been lucky getting prizes lately although I haven't won much last 2 weeks anyway - not complaining as I had a lucky few months before that. Still not given up on the Currys Comp. lol

    you can ripen bananas overnight if needed ILC's
    by putting them in a brown paper bag with a tomato or apple :D
    presuming you've got an apple or tomato handy :o:rotfl::eek:

    Good Morning,

    Frosty here this morning but supposed to be a nice day later. Will wait until it heats up a bit to go for a walk.

    Thanks for tip on bananas FF - will try that. Have found when we take them away with us to have the following day they always seem to be ready.

    We use those Tesco vouchers to stock up on lots of things ILC and by going through separately can take full advantage.

    Hope everyone has a lucky day.
