Someone who pulls over (safely) when driving to answer a call because they entered a comp and it might just be that....
Someone who has several times done the 24 hr comps, think orange balloon race, lotto etc and felt like a zombie from lack of sleep.

Someone who won't book anything on Friday mornings, because it will interfere with doing the Friday tweets.

Someone with a comping only phone/phone number and separate comping email

.......Someone who neglects their family ie gives them no attention and tries to make up for the neglect by giving them countless keyrings, coasters etc that they have won! A professional comper feels guilty, as well as joy, and is probably a very lonely person too...so they turn to the newspapers to gain some attention!:TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea0
