    How to make friends and influence people.

    You asked a question which several compers had the decency to answer, if you don't like hearing the truth then don't ask questions.

    Grow a thicker skin or get some metal knickers!!

    I have a very thick skin, honest I wasn't implying discontent that I wasn't winning anything, it literally was a light hearted discussion about beginners luck and I felt patronised by the replies....that's all

    You are not allowed to talk about not winning, only allowed if you come on and say all the fantastic stuff you have won!
    I havnt had a decent win for a while, a few little things but nothing major, its because there are two many people doing them now. I feel like giving up but then have a burst of doing some more, Christmas time is the best I won a£350 mobile phone in Jan from a xmas comp. Just keep ploding along and hope for the best xxx

    Not at the same time as the horn that would be a bit much.

    I have no recollection of the lipstick...

  • Mansey I don't understand what you mean about knickers and lippy???

    Moneybot where has the 'too' 'two' mistake been made? I will be devastated if it is me because it is one of my pet hates....I will blame the iPad autocorrect if it is my mistake though?

    I think in terms of forums and things, people should only reply with what they would actually say if it was face to face convo ......if I began talking about my losing streak with a complete stranger, purely to make conversation I doubt they would reply with 'give me strength' it's just not very polite is it,

    On a friendly note however, lucky dust to all and hopefully mine will return x
