Nothing this month but well done to the winners here
"Those who try to make sense of the world are divided into four categories: scientists, theologians, philosophers, and fools. Correction ... make that one category with three sub-divisions" -- Carlo Kensada0 -
August for me has been pretty quiet, but I only started 2 months ago and the way I see it is some comps are long running *fingers crossed*
Small win: Oil & compact mirror - received a winning call Friday
Big win: Man Utd v Chelsea tickets, hotel, travel, and took a penalty at half time! - Best win so far!
Look out in the MSE Tuesday email for an article on this win!!
To add to this, just has a last minute instant win, from a comp that I posted aswell and was having no luck ever since!
