    My little peepies are so tired already that sometimes I am taking forever to find the no.1 door on the calendars! :(

    My bum has gone flat with sitting so I will probably need to blow up a rubber ring by the end of the week to sit on so I don't develop piles :(

    I have devoured a whole family sized pack of minstrels in just one day so I will probably get fat too :(

    OMG I think that by Christmas day I will be a slitty eyed, flat butted blob :(

    I'm at the hairdressers all tomorrow morning so will have to do them when I get home!

    At least there will be a reduction after 12 days ans many are only running till the 12th - though some will probably start on the 12th to the 24th! I have been selective today though and just passed some of the prizes that don't really interest me. There are only so many hours in the day and as it gets closer to Christmas I am going to have less time to comp.

    Is it me or have more advent competitions gone down the route of Facebook only which were previously web entry? I recognise a few that I entered via the web last year have this year gone FB only which is an annoyance as I am permabanned from FB and they provide no non-FB entry route. Grrr! :mad:

    If there is one thing, it means less work to do this year. :rotfl:

    Yes, I agree and lots are L&S so I keep cringing each time I hit the share button :eek:

    Today has been tiring as I have been trying to keep up with the Advents, as well as my usually dailies PLUS I have also been entering The Sunday Times comp hourly and the Stella comp every two hours!

    If there are lots of L&S comps not posted in the L&S section pls let me know. There are lots of FB comps posted but working out what's L&S is difficult when I can't get onto FB and I'm not entering many advents so don't get to know unless someone tells me

    The only downside of subscribing to the advent threads by email notification is you get lots of bumpers saying 'Yeah I won this yesterday's prize'....then someone else bumps to say 'don't bump!....then the bumper bumps back to say 'sorry!' and on and on it goes......pulling-hair-out.jpguntil you tear your hair out!

    OMG yes and the ones where the answer gets posted umpteen times

    "I thinks it's blue bananas"

    "yes I agree it's blue bananas"

    "Is it blue bananas?"

    Then somebody posts the wrong answer

    "red bananas"

    arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrg
