    Has it come to that? I thought we all shared so increasing the chances of SOMEONE from boards.ie can win? Obviously I was wrong.

    If you feel that strongly about it, keep them. Very petty.

    I totally agree with you.

    I would like to thank Angel01 for her kindness on this thread, also Midgej who shared every answer to the Gem comp she was entering, to Sue (I dont know her user name) she knows who she is. To all the other users (too many to mention) who have ensured me winning a robert roberts coffee thingy, a cushelle teddy. To the girl who won the France Cookery Thingy - well done for letting us all know, to the guy who won a trip to Argentina (it was far away) thanks for letting us know.

    We're a very positive group here and we wish everybody well - shame on you who don't share your answers.
