  • Yep, my hobbies have all been over taken now, annoying because I really enjoyed reading before and watching films, now I don't watch so many films because I can't concentrate properly while I'm comping! The other day I wasn't feeling well, so I turned off the laptop and watched two films back to back, it felt good to do something else lol. I am going to start making time for other things!

    Yeah, I guess it has. I'm housebound alot of the time so my usual hobby (Photography) has faded into the background a bit. Comping gives me something to do when I'm well enough and my husband never complains about the prizes either. ;)
