    Keep going, I felt the same the other day as I've never won any 'big' prizes and have only had four small wins this year. Then out of the blue I had a WTC and my first big win. Think lucky and you'll be lucky is how I always try to look at it.

    Thanks everyone!


    I can't complain as since 2007, I have had some fab prizes, 2 massive family holiday wins and 2 iPads, but it just seems to have gone quiet. I have won a few prizes this year, but nothing major.


    Oh well, you've got to be in it to win it!

    Not quite a dream win, but after my moan yesterday, I have received a Facebook message from our local cinema which opens this week to say I have won a prize. I think it is 2 free tickets, but not been confirmed yet!!!
