    August has been a bit slow for me ... I won £5 from the local paper's crossword competition and two prizes I'd won earlier arrived: the Tea Tree Kit from Paul Mitchell (new magazine) and L'Oreal hair masque. However, July was a bad month for comping (move house, house guests, no internet for a while, going on holiday) so I'm hoping September will be ace! :)
    latest win: LOTR: Moria - thanks to catz
    - I'm moving to Australia in April - will the competitions be any good there?!:rotfl:
