Someone announces they are pregnant, it's christmas, there's a wedding, summer... Or something you can comp for 'real purpose'?

The couple down the road has just had a baby boy and now I'm more than excited to comp to win them some nice things for christmas :D xx

Just me!?!

    I'm obviously a humbug as the answer for me is, no, too many people have been too ungrateful for competition wins in the past so now I mainly comp for ME and my hubby xx

    Much the same here!
    I waste enough of my time entering for me anyway, can't be bothered now for other people on the whole, with the odd exception.

    Redundancy isn't fun - comping is!
