    I'm dressed somberly for my appearance in court!!

    My crime: Giving away tickets that I wasn't using /Couldn't use.
    My plea: I'm Guilty your honour.:o

    In my defence: I was having fun being cupid shooting the lovely difting hearts and seeing pretty gold and silver hearts. They made me feel happy.
    I also thought a cruise would be nice but failed to check out all details first.

    Previous crimes: No previous or other offences carried out your honour.Hand on my heart no bible to hand. Normally only enter for things I want or my husband or sons would use or like.I promise to check all details from now on!

    Prosecution: You were only entering to boost your 2008 total!

    No your honour that is a bit of fun to see what I have acheived when comping. I don't feel that I have to fulfill or beat that target. Iam not that bothered it is just fun entering for the competitions and distracts from the boring job of housework.

    mitigating circumstances:
    Have 2 children, husband, cat, 38 fish & school hamster (this week) to feed.

    The jury will now retire to consider the verdict and sentencing.:cry:

    That made me really laugh.
    I too have been guilty of getting carried away but sometimes you may enter trying to win a first prize and be 'lucky' enough to get a runners up prize that happens to be tickets you can't use etc. Very often these things aren't transferable either and so end up going to waste, which is a shame but, hey it happens.

    Keep smiling everyone :D

    Hi not sure if this the correct place for this but would really appreciate any help you can giive. My Thanks button wont work!!! I am logged in ,have defragmented, ran CC cleaner cleared temp internet files but still wont work. I am using a windows 98 comp but it did use to work ok for me . Now everytime i want to thank someone the page jumps up and the thanks button is still there. If i press CTRL and F5 about 5 times it will eventually let me thank someone but i am having to do this EACH time it is driving me mad. I am sure there must be a simple remedy to this . Can anyone please help or advise. Thankyou
