Comping as a cure for depression
CCP
Posts: 5,062 Forumite
OK, not really, but it's amazing how often I'm feeling really down and then a competition prize comes along to cheer me up. I've been a bit down recently, what with a sick cat, a sick sister, and a roof that leaks every time it rains, and I've just received an email to say I won an iPad in a FB comp! :j:j:j
The only slight worry I have is that I can't find the comp on the forum, and I was certain I posted it - my sincere apologies if I didn't and I won the iPad without giving everyone else a chance.

Back after a very long break!
