I like that one too - my prizes this year haven't really hit target with regards to that, unless everyone would like some 'you are what you eat snack packs??' :rotfl:

Although - your right - (unless I win two of them), they are mine all mine!!!!!

Someone was asking whether a very Welsh address might affect their chances adversely. I was wondering the same thing about age. I quite understand that most competitions need to ask this question to ensure that entrants are above the minimum age, but I suspect that just a touch of "ageism" might creep into the judging. You know the kind of thing - "What the heck does a seventy year-old want an XBox for?"

Perhaps I am just getting paranoid in my old age! Anyway I quite fancy one of those Wii thingies - whatever they are!

Hi, Gypsy Man!!

As long as your fingers are able, who cares how old you are? Games are games at any age.

Anyway, compers enter BELOW their ages too, from what I've heard, if the prize is right...:D:D:D

Could be those nasty people attacking the site again. I bet they don't give up easily.:mad:

Ive already decided to do this challenge next year = this year i won a few things for my children for xmas, including a nintendo Wii, which gave me the idea for next year.

My plan is, anything i win from the 1st Jan, will either be used for xmas or sold, and the money put towards anything i need to buy!!!

I plan to challenge myself to win back my flats annual ground rent and service charges. Which is £2000/pa for the next 3 years (due to lots of work being done on the building) then it goes back to £1000. So that will be my target.

Hmmm.... I'm a little bit worried about comping next year as I have to move in June, I guess I can get mail redirected. I think my goal would be to get at least 10 things I can use for xmas pressies lol.

Edit: Oh just seen that it will cost £7.10 a month to redirect mail... In that case if I move in June and get it redirected until Jan '09, I need to make 6 months worth of redirecting in comps. So my goal for next year is £42.60 in prizes
