Had a relatively quite weekend (It's a bank holiday in Glasgow (Monday)), so figured I'd come in and catch up on the comps that are closing today (Tuesday) ... what the? ... Took me about 5 hours, there's like [STRIKE]50[/STRIKE] 64 pages of comps ending on the 30/09 (and Im pretty selective about the ones I enter)

It was a bit half-a$$ed if I'm honest, Just sat on the sofa filling them out on the Laptop while watching Vicar of Dibley and the Silence of the Lambs0

If the month end had been a Friday there would be even more.
For non end-daters the total number of pages added for Sun, Mon and this morning was only 32.0 -

Does anyone else suffer with sore hands and wrists (RSI) when comping? I have roboform which is a godsend but still get pains if I try and blast through page after page.0

I've never had it, maybe try changing your sitting position or get a wrist support?
Alternatively, just take it easy ... do a few, go make a coffee, do a few more ... maybe try and break it up a bit instead of blasting through them in one sitting.0
