    I'm taking a "night off" tonight, just cannot be bothered with it :)
  • Not enough hours in the day to do everything. Need to prioritise - and comping may have to take a back seat for a while.

    Good luck everyone and Merry Christmas xxx

    Most of the advents are tat this year. I have about 150 bookmarked and i probably only enter half of them on a daily basis. But it still takes time and effort to look through the tat to find something worth entering.

    Plus theres lots more people comping nowadays so less chance to win unlike previous years.

    The best way to do it is to whizz through the advents as quick as you can then concentrate on the normal comps as they tend to get forgotten within the hoohar over the advents.

    Can't wait for it all to be over tbh which is unusual as ive enjoyed and looked forward to entering advents in previous years :( this year just isnt the same

    I have zero clue how I have got to the 14th and managed to do the list as well as had major building work go on, On the first I was stuck in my bedroom as builders finished conservatory, absolute bedlam as u can imagine noise and 2 dogs demanding to know whats going on.

    Now it's all straight and i have bought and wrapped and written all food lists for xmas I can actually breathe again, Don't think I've had a chance to spend more than 5 mins in it yet! The furniture set I won for it last year, I plan to use it as my quiet room to comp in the day.
