Dry spell

In the last 4 months I have won the grand sum of a £1.00 voucher for McCain chips, today I have posted a bucket full of comps and must have entered nearly a thousand, if I don't win anything this month I think I might give it up.




only joking
I do it just for fun and whatever I win is a bonus

    I'm in the same boat Dave. This has been my worst year since starting back in 02.
    My prize list for this year has 6 minor entries on it and nothing else.

    Hopefully there's a big win just around the corner for us both!

  • Don't despair! You know a dry spell is usually broken by something good............think ITV phone calls and rolling in cash :D

    Sending tonnes of lucky dust to both of you. You both deserve a cracking win for Xmas and thank you for all you do. :beer:

    Don't give up! I nearly did after winning absolutely nothing throughout the whole of August and September but in October I had three in a week.

    It will happen! :)

    ah best of luck to both of you, you certainly deserve some wins with the amount you post up for us. Can't say I've had a great year myself but you never know when something good will have your name on it :D
