I have to say I have been quite enjoying all this competition entering I've been doing of late again. Nothing beats that little thrill when you hear that you've won something however little.
This last couple of weeks I've heard about quite a few wins I've had. One of the first was a full Quiksilver outfit of my choice ( approx £500) which I had a lot of fun choosing with my dear OH. Just had an email to say it should be on it's way to me so that's exciting, it will be just like Christmas. I also got a bottle of Only The Brave Diesel aftershave (£38) ready for my OH's Valentines, a pair of Hanky Panky undies (£18), a set of Jamie At home DVDs from the comp on Bod For Tea's blog, Kettle Chips ( which we've already eaten) and a couple of waterproofing products for my outdoor clothing.
One thing i wanted to achieve from comping was to get the opportunity to go and do some things we never do and one of those ways is by winning tickets. So I was amazingly chuffed to find out i'd won 2 tickets for the 6 Nations Rugby match at Murrayfield tomorrow to see Scotland take on Wales (£140) ( Which is why I'm here on my computer tapping away at the moment waiting for the tickets to be delivered!!). I also won 2 tickets to see a band called Grinspoon at King Tuts at Glasgow (£20) so that's my next saterday night sorted. I would never have gone to see them otherwise and we will make a day of it, go see an exhibition, eat dinner out somewhere different. It will be a pretty fabulous day out in one of our favourite cities.
And just had a Wonderbra & matching knickers (£42) and 5 Bourjois Lipglosses (£6.99 each) delivered so off to search for where they came from.
Now I am entering comps to try and win tickets to the Creative Stitches and Hobbycraft Show at SECC in March and also for any holidays I find. Please do let me know if you see any comps for the show at the SECC.

Almost a year since I last blogged..oh dear!1
Well this is me going to give this one more go. I have recently started entering some competitions and this really has opened up a new world to me. I'm actually using facebook for reasons other than to be nosy, and I'm learning the ins and outs of Twitter.
Another sideshoot of this is dipping back into the world of Blogs and so I came to the conclusion that maybe i should give this another go and use my blog to keep a record of my attempt at being a competition winner!!
I might also still be including my makes and clothing purchases though. How could I not!!
