    Good Morning,

    Well last day of the year - wonder if there will be many WEMs for us today to add to 2013s list. Feel I have had a pretty lucky year. Everyone else feel they have had too? Going to have a look at my list of wins later and compare them against the first three years lists.

    Has everyone got plans for tonight? We are just staying in ourselves - pubs are always mobbed anyway. Usually just visit my parents tomorrow and that is about it. Just hope DS3 manages to take things easy as he is working tomorrow and will get persuaded to stay out and drink far too much.

    Sounds really windy again but not raining so hope things get better for the area. We saw fields flooded all the way once we got into Dumfries & Galloway and in places we had never seen flooded before. Don't know if the water came over the harbour here at high tide as we live a mile out and luckily not at flood risk from the river.

    Have a lovely day.

    Hope its been a good year for you all and that 2014 is an even better one.
    All I want is my health & a life back.
    Ok a few good wins also would be lovely, as no wins since Oct and only about 6 in whole year I'm defo not as disciplined as you all are at comping but still enter lots in a week, what am I doing wrong?
    I was thinking of Amilucky and wondering how he & his wife are, anyone heard.
    My ds is home from uni for 5 weeks :)

    I was planning on getting up early and doing food shop but it seems we were all exhausted! :p

    Hiya red :wave: hope you enjoy the new year too xx I was on about AIL too last week and his dear wife to my sis. Her MIL has dementia and her DH won't have it that she needs a carer although she is getting up through night switching oven on etc. I said how AIL was very brave coping and how much he loved his dear wife but sometimes you just need that little bit of extra help to remain strong. Hope he and his lovely wife are well too xx

    Sheils, although I wasn't very lucky prize wise this year and we had the news about mum, I did finish off the year with the fantastic cash win from lotto which will help massively :)
    Glad you got home safe from the flooding xx

    You had some lovely wins too fire**fly :T May it continue into next year too :) Enjoy your evening, whatever you decide! :D :beer:

    Glad you got your PC sorted Sylvia :) I don't do roboform as I've been using iPad to comp on all this year. Not sure I would know how to use a pc anymore! :p

    My bro wants us to go to his but I think I will just have a quiet one with the kids as usual. I don't normally like new yr. Will let the kids bring in new yr and stick on some music!
    Have a fantastic evening, whatever your plans xx

    Well this year seems to have flown by. We have had some lovely wins during the year.

    Happy new Year Red. As you say Health and Happiness is far better than all the prizes you could win and we wish you Health and happiness for 2014 (and of course some wins on the way would be an added bonus).

    Glad you managed to find the comp you were looking for firefly, you are so efficient. I got sorted and complex helped. You can't do everything at once and you are always so helpful so thanks for all your efforts and help over the past Year.

    Hope you enjoy your New Years eve Sheils/Ellemm and everyone else of course.

    Postie has just arrived with the Figgy Christmas Pud that Fred won, it looks lovely.

    Keep safe everyone.
    BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS
