    Are you not going to karaoke tonight Katie? Haven't been watching the voice yet but I did want to see if Michelle from Corrie.... to see if her daughter got through :)

    The leak wasn't too bad fire**fly/sheils but did soak my stair carpet again. It was in the shower this time but I warned DH that shower wasn't draining properly last time and he said he changed pipe bit which he hadn't!

    Have a great time with DS sheils if you haven't already set off :)

    The girls have drained me today! I took DD to gymnastics as she had to rehearse for competitions coming up and then we went into town shopping. I bought a bra for myself but girls got clothes and coat! Then went to soft play after with my sis & niece and my eldest DD even played. I think she misses playing in soft play.
    Son & DH went to Manchester to watch match so just a girlie day today.
    I've just won £25 on lottery so that's good :)
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    hi Katie, sounds like a nice relaxing day had,
    I watched a bit of the voice & agree some of the
    singers were quite good,

    glad the leak wasn't too bad wingo,
    hope DH gets it all sorted properly for you x
    well done on the lottery win :j:j

    have a great time sheils & safe journey,



    hi claire822 & welcome.gif
    think just put as much time as you can when you can :)
    i've been comping since round about the 1970's :eek:
    when it was snail mail & EF's only :eek::D
    now we have easy copy/paste/just press a button so it's
    lots easier & quicker :D
    I think it's worth doing as have had lots of wonderful wins
    for the family/friends etc & lots that help
    charities/raffles etc raise money,
    some times you can go for a few weeks without a win &
    then a couple will come along together,
    for me it's just the fun of the game & enjoying the hobby :j
    treat it as a bit of fun & enjoy & hopefully you'll
    soon be posting a winner :)
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    Hi Claire and welcome :) comping is fun and addictive and I suppose it depends on how many hours you want to put into it but I guess the more hours, the more comps you can enter. I don't enter that many as I used to but don't win much like I used to either! :D
    Good luck and hope you start winning :)
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!
  • Thanks both :) I look forward to it! It's better than wasting time on Facebook anyway!

    Morning all,


    Just popped in to wish everyone a Happy Rabbie Burns day!
    Must get some comps done now as not taking lappy into Edinburgh as we are staying in city centre hotel so leaving car on outskirts. Edinburgh pretty car hostile.
    Hope everyone has a lucky few days. Might manage to pop in when we get to Stirling .

    Thought this was a lovely cute pup.

    Hope you are all OK.

    Lovely pice firefly/Sheils.

    I have probably missed you already but have a good trip Sheils and take some nice pics.

    Good luck with comping Claire and hope you win soon.

    Sounds like you had a busy day yesterday Wingo. Glad your eldest DD enjoyed the soft play.

    Have a lovely Sunday everyone, we are expecting the GK's over this afternoon, it will be nice to see them again as havent seen them for 2 weeks.

    The wine we won came while we were away, the neighbor came over with it so we gave him a bottle. We also have a red card for a signed for letter which will probably be the Brantana voucher.
    BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS
