I have entered everything i could possibly know about where i live...which is limited as there is nothing to do here that doesn't cost a lot or need a car to get to.

i have been saving all my tips on a post it next to puter

I prefer the local stuff. My tips are always rubbish. My mind goes blank and I can only think if things that my mum tried to teach me such as how to put tights on properly.

Here Here, there are only so many local places for most of us I would have thought.

musicianswidowAKAmumofmonsters · 14/06/2007 15:29

it would be nice to have the choice ....

MamaG · 14/06/2007 15:49

I too am running out of places!

Presumably it's because the MN Local section needs building up with info and hits, so that it can become more of a force for income generation, and, especially, a source of donated prizes.

Stop looking at gift horses in the mouth!

MamaG we do NOT respond to sulking!!

As for the rest of you, there are many more fab competitions coming up this summer so get your thinking caps on and keep your eyes peeled when you're out and about. There are 43 different categories so there's bound to be something you can add!
Good luck

BellaBear · 14/06/2007 21:18

cupcakes - how do you put on tights properly then?

Aloha · 14/06/2007 21:20

Oh go on MamaG - it's a quid pro quo. You can think of something!

MrsJohnCusack · 14/06/2007 21:26

of course this means that people outside the UK can't enter at all now...

DrNortherner · 14/06/2007 21:28

Is it like the Rovers REturn or teh Woolpack?

MamaG · 15/06/2007 15:20

MamaG Oh yes, I'm a proper Pollyanna, me! I can see the glass half full in any situation.
