    I won a comp with five.tv at the end of Oct, but still haven't recieved my prize. The e-mail said it would be with me shortly, nothing about 28days etc. Shall I contact them yet? Just thinking it might have got lost in the post :confused:


    I won a dvd with fivefilm.tv in the middle of October and I haven't received it yet. I've contacted them loads through email but only had 1 reply. They asked me to confirm my postal address. They're 'looking' into it! :rolleyes:

    NOW IN COMPING SEMI-RETIREMENT! :D

    Winnings can take months. I'm still waiting for one from July. Just keep sending a very polite, grovelling email, every month or so. Apparently my stuff is coming from Russia!!!!!

    I have a comps folder with the name of each site as a seperate notepad.. I find it's easier for me that way

    The 'thanks' doesn't work for me as I have dodgy internet and only use this site for about 25 percent of the comps I enter as searching takes me too long on here... and the sites in my favourites under comps...

    ..which helped while MSE was down as I have my own ready made system lol
    :j A-well-a bird, bird, bird...b-bird's the word :j

    :wave: goodnight catz!
    :wave: good morning!

    I'm all excited today cos we're (me, my sister and our auntie) going to watch Take That later!!! :j :j :j
    We couldn't get tickets for Manchester so we have to go to Birmingham instead - its not too long on the train. I wanted to go and see tham last year but it wasn't long after I had dd2 so I wasn't feeling upto it! I haven't got a clue what time we'll be back - probably after 12 I would have thought. I'll have a lot of catching up to do tomorrow but it'll be worth it :D

    NOW IN COMPING SEMI-RETIREMENT! :D

    :rotfl:

    A bride groom maybe, but don't think other half would be too pleased ~ he'd prefer the bride.

    Just a signed cd and t shirt and other stuff from a Russian singer ~ you never know he may be famous one day, so its going in the attic along with other stuff/junk/collectables I've collected over the years (and one day, my family will have to clear it all out :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I think I am going to will it to my granddaughter, she's just like me and doesn't want to throw anything away ~ much to the annoyance of my daughter.

    Does anyone know if the work last night has restored the old posts?

    Also I just wondered (as this is my first comping xmas!) do there tend to be more comps out there in the run up to xmas?

    too many comps..not enough time!

    Oh furndire, I'm the same - had a little clear out of the 2nd bedroom a few weeks ago, put all the stuff to one side which was being recycled/thrown out..... last night I went into the room & put it all back again :D :rotfl:Shhhhh BF doesn't know yet ;)
