Really getting fed up!   
I think I must have killed a robin or something - last year I won hardly
anything, and this year looks to be going the same way. The years before
were great, I was always winning something, tv's, cameras, mobile phones,
bike, washer, holidays, clothes vouchers, Brainteaser  - but now not even a
cd.

Are there more people entering, there are certainly a lot more comps?

Moan, moan, moan, moan, moan, moan, moan. moan,moan.

Mazza - blow some of that magic winning dust over here!

I'm getting really discouraged..

Cor, Shiela, what a great haul. I have never won a tv, mobile phone, bike washer, holiday, clothes voucher or brainteaser in spite of struggling away like crazy.  However, we are early on in the year, so let's hope we both win something good soon :) :)

Lots of folk here have won a whole lot more than me!
Lets hope the power of the moan (and Mazza's dust) do the trick   lol

Re: Really getting fed up!   
That's a pretty good list of prizes maybe you've just used up the law of averages on the plus side, and the balance is being brought back.
Keep the entries going in and without a doubt, the wins will return.
:o)

Hi Shiela,  I know exactly how you feel.  I was right down in the dumps
recently and lack of wins wasn't helping but  the past couple of days
have perked me up a bit.  I've not had any "big wins"  in the 5 months
I've been comping and kind of felt silly entering so many without any
results but as everyone kept telling me, something came along :)

I'm hoping that one day I will get a biggie but in the meantime, my
little un's will do :)

Thanks to all the competition posters, your efforts are appreciated
despite the lack of wims!

me that there is always someone worse off than myself :-)

But it isn't LG, it's somebody who knows how to change their apparent
posting name but not the "from" email address, which rather gives the
game away.

Re: Really getting fed up!   
Shiela, you should heed the advice that Karen is giving you. In short
your posts always carry the same message, "I want, I want, I want."

 You have always come across as a self-centred, grasping bore. Try
doing something for others for a change instead of spending your whole
life trying to get something for nothing. How about going outside for
a change. Get some fresh air. Try something different. Don't keep
boring everybody about all the prizes you think you should have won.

Oh Dear!, Has the Youth Club been forced to close early again, or is it
simply another example of the failure of Care in the Community?
