Just wondering.....

....what you do whilst comping?


Watch television? Have the radio on? Chant lucky mantras?


Just being nosey :)


I'm currently listening to War of the Worlds (Jeff Wayne) whilst merrily comping.

    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png




  • Nice, I love War of the Worlds.

    I sometimes listen to music but mostly I just comp. I find it quite relaxing. :)

    May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx

    That's v cool!


    I get easily distracted (hence the reason I've entered 4 comps whilst listening to WotW but have been on here for about an hour!)


    Listening to the radio whilst comping is a killer for me, especially if it's a commercial radio station. I hear an advert for...I don't know.. house plant leaf polisher and I have to go and look it up online! LOL.

    Happy to hear of another War of the Worlds fan. Thought I was part of a endangered species ;)

    I cannot stand the silence - it scares me so I always have either the tv or radio on even if I am not watching or listening! I sit on the settee with my laptop on my knee (on one of those cushioned laptop trays) and my doggie woggie woo woo sits beside me :) I am up and down like a yo yo though as I get restless easily and also get cramps in my mouse hand or buttocks . So I might have a flutter with the duster, dance with the hoover, sing with the dishes, play with the kiddiwinkles, bake a little pie, etc inbetween comping! dusting-smiley-emoticon.gifironing-clothes-smiley-emoticon.gifdoing-dishes-smiley-emoticon.gif

    In-between comping I often browse and shop online too! Today I ordered a reindeer outfit for my chi - cannot wait to take her out in it! It has little antlers on the hoodie, a shiny red nose and jingly bells attached! By the way it is only 95 days to go until Santa visits! That is just 71 day until the advents officially start! 3d-rudolph.gif
