    Haven't been comping since New Year due to personal reasons, but I'm starting back tonight.
    I do have some wins to report :) 

    January -
    20p from the bird
    Stephen the Sprout of Kindness Book
    £100 One4All Voucher

    February -
    Devolo Magic 2 LAN Starter Kit

    No idea where to fit them into the challenge, but I'm sure I'll find somewhere for them ;)

    for margs Feb challenge posted a comp for Rose (darn it, can't find font colour) coloured horsey stuff and also a comp for a greenhouse - you can grow flowers in it :D - rather tenuous link but, hey, got to try and i'm sure lucinad would agree!

    Yes I would definitely say there was a good link there

    Although using me as your advocate is probably not going to help you, for some reason people seem to think I'm a trier!!!... The cheek 😂😂

    Yes, I agree too.  You definitely grow flowers in a greenhouse.  

    Marg2k8 - 1 point (1 x comp posted)
    bluesooz - 3 points (3 x comps posted)
    lucinad - 21 points (21 x comps posted)
    mansey - 1 point (1 x comp posted)

    I'm going to try and navigate the boards a bit more today and post some comps, enter some comps and tidy up the mag daily thread, which currently looks most odd.  The quoted comments on the new forum look a bit odd too.  For example above, lucinad's comments are highlighted blue as well as what is commented on.  Hey ho, I'mm sure we will all get used to it soon and I think I would sooner get used to the little niggles on this site than get to grips with a totally different competition site.  After all, no other site has a challenge that is in itself total madness and mayhem  :)

    Seems to be a few things missing, I am sure they will get sorted :D

    There is a way you can do it. 

    I have managed to bookmark mine again. 

    My link is this;

    If you want to bookmark yours, go to your thread, hover over the quote bottom, you will see a number (right at the bottom left of the screen, not exactly under quote).  If you copy my URL, but change the number in both places, you can bookmark yours. (If I have remembered correctly :)

    Have been home all day and evening, on my own, so I've had some serious comping hours in, not all on this site mind you :open_mouth: 
    I still can't log in using Chrome but managed to fix my issue for the time being, whilst things settle. 
    No February wins as of yet for me, still chasing a prize from December :angry:
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.

    I didn't know how to tag people before, but I do now, so I just wanted to make sure that @lucinad saw my last post  :)

    Prior to the new format, I always used to think that this challenge thread was where all the madness happened, but now compared to everything else that is happening in compers chat corner, we seem quite ordinary.  

    Does anyone know if all the challengers managed to log in to the new forum successfully or have we lost anyone?

    I didn't know you could tag folks @Marg2k8
    Folks are going a bit stir crazy, things will come right given time  ;)
    Ordinary!!!!  :D
    Maybe we should do a list of all the folks in the challenge and tick them off if they have signed in to the new forum, I suppose it would be our small way of helping anyone who is having problems to move over  <3

    The Smileys are still naff  :(
