I too have lost the place following 2 weeks with a chest infection but can claim:

Week 7 - started chitting potatoes and
Week 8 - made a new allotment sign out of a bit of old tree trunk - pic to follow.

Still on the antibiotics so further progress may be slow

Took sign up to allotment today so here is pic as promised

I may search out the needlepoint I started a while ago, (about 12 years ago actually) and finish it. I can't remember why I didn't finish it - maybe 'cos the last bits are fiddlly little leaves in 3 or 4 colours and very tedious. My design so my fault.

Don't even remember where it is, but pretty sure it's not in the attic, so should be able to find it!

Week 8 - I sold unwanted books on ebay for about £40.

Week 9 - Had more strawberry runners delivered today, must plant them out tomorrow.

[Feral007]

Week 9 - I got me contract!

Week 11 - do the paperwork...I'll need a week off before tackling them again.

My Week 9 challenge is ongoing but I'll write it down so that I'm committed.
Not to run the water when I'm cleaning my teeth but to use water from a glass. (no rude comments about keeping my teeth in a glass either, thank you)

My week 9 challenge.

Dig out the roots of 3 humungous bamboos from my front garden.
It will probably take me the full week they are so big.

[Tripmeup]

Week 9 for me... Consomme my marriage..
Well, we already have 3 kids so bit late for other bit.. So a clear soup it is for me for the first time in a long time..

Part 2... Go to the cinema; we don't get to do this too often, do off we went to see Lincoln today and it was during the day!!

Thought of a new challenge last night - I must update our moggy photos. I shall sneak around the house with the camera.....

And another this morning - I want to sew a wall clock. But I must finish my dresses first. The alterations to the bodices have put me off going back to them but it must be done...

[Glutton4...]

... Make sure I get my 3 litres of water a day. I've had about 16 litres already this morning so that does me till next weekend!!

I've only just seen this, and I really cba to read all the way through to see if anyone has advised you against this, but either way, please please don't drink that much water - it is extremely bad for you! Go do some research ffs!
