Just a theory...

Normally the end of November/December is when I'm wrapping down comping. With 3 young girls with various school fairs, dance shows and Christmas parties and a husband at sea I just do not have enough time.
But it occurred to me that if that's what I do (as a semi normal mum, with a no more hectic lifestyle than the average person) then maybe so do a lot of other people and so therefore not as many entries and more chance of winning!!
Just a silly theory but figured I would push on this Christmas (hence why I have matchsticks in my eyes and on my 2 cup of coffee at 11pm :rotfl:) and test it out
Incidentally I won my best prize around this time last year...£500 of Apple vouchers so maybe there is something in it!!

It does start getting more difficult to find the time this time of year.I work full time but luckily have no young children just a uni student at home so all presents are done. decs up. Just food shopping. I'm not looking forward to advents and might give them a miss this year. Hasn't seemed in previous years any easier to win around Christmas though so i think the majority of hardened compers carry on regardless
good luck
August-September 2017: Lots of stuff
