    Well, fwiw here's my thoughts on the subject.

    I think you're right Pigpen, the levels are there to encourage babysteps.

    Maybe a reward system for each level? To encourage everyone to try for at least level one.

    I thought that the basis of the lists was that they get easier each week, the more times you've done a bit, means that next time it gets better.

    Plus, I thought, that it was encouraging everyone to focus activity in one area, not to have scattered activity all over the house which as we know, means we work harder without necessarily having anything to show for it.

    Anyway, that's my thoughts on it all. :)

    Agree with frodders - too much work for all you three, go back to original and if we want to post our 'very own challenge' we can and let everyone see we have at least acheived something that has been bugging us/ignoring (and also a bit of personal pat on the back) without having a heart or whatever

    Jo - please don't be offended by what we've done. We would do it for any friend (don't mean that disrespectfully). We are ALL friends here, even though I could walk past all you in the street all and not have a clue who you are xx

    I think maybe a nice smiley for completing each level?:confused:
    BUT that may be too much work for you all to deal with and get too confusing

    Maybe if everyone stated what level they want to achieve, and they do to that level they get a star?:confused:

    I do like the weekly challenge though as well.

    Been up to the hospital tonight to see my Gran, she was taken back in today with another chest infection:cool:
    Hope your gran is ok Jinky.
    My mum is just out of hospital, again, but thankfully she seems to be well enough to come to the caravan with us :). She was in for a routine procedure but every time they give her anaesthetic her blood pressure drops a lot!
    I am excited about my hols......cannot settle......anyone suggest anywhere I must go, shopwise I mean ? (Then I can make a list ;)).

    How about we do our own smilies (gaining one for each level 1 we do, 2 for each level 2 and 3 for each level 3, and count them, at the end of the week we can trade smilies in for stars ? (e.g one star= 5 smilies).....we'd just have to report our smilie total.....hmmm or is this more complicated lol ?
