    It just proves there are not enough kind people out there, because when you do a kind gesture people always think there is an ulterior motive.

    Be nice because what goes around comes around as I found out yesterday

    Karma :D

    Silverfox11 that is good of you to give away your spare ticket. Glad you enjoyed the show.

    Mansey - you are usually the one who says you are a nosy bugga. Now it is my time. What are you on about karma for?

    I have started watching celebrity BB. My first guess of who will win is Amelia Lily. I saw her once in Joseph and the Amazing technicolour dreamcoat and she was good. (Those tickets were a prize and I took my DD, my friend and a friend of my friend).

    Karma = What goes around comes around, if you do a good turn for someone it will be returned. I sent something I couldn't use to a comper a while ago and a couple of days back a comper sent something to me. (I don't want to elaborate ;) )

    It's nice to be nice :D

    I quite like Helen Lederer I remember her from Ab Fab but she looks totally lost and a bit ditzy, Amelia Lily looks a normal Northern lass :T

    Hellos - at last a win to report and a thank you to Mansey as it was from an Instagram competition she tagged me in. It appears to be some glitter and a candle with a ring in it. No I don't know why you would put a ring in a candle but there you go.

    Have tried to catch up with the thread but not having access to TV I fear I am missing out on the BB references.

    Do I need to guess how little I might win in August?

    You need to be positive and think big, so how much you will win, not how little!
    Big Brother is not a great miss. The usual bunch of z listers.

    You are right I shall be more positive!

    Apparently the ring in the candle can be worth up to £250 (still no idea why one would put a ring in a candle).

    I shall go for a round £100.

    Ah is it celebrity BB then? I only really liked the first one with Jack Dee.

    How is everyone? What are you all up to?

    No wins coming my way, but I seem to be doing a good job of helping others win by posting competitions, hopefully karma will be coming my way soon! Having a lazy Sunday entering competitions then I'm off to my parents for my Birthday dinner. Fingers crossed for some wins tomorrow :D
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.

    Happy Birthday. I do hope you get some nice prizes as karma for posting.
    I've not had a very exciting day. Just been out to Asda and been doing the ironing and hoovering. Now entering a few comps.
