    Hi everyone - can I join you. I'm afraid I've found you rather late into the month, but thought I would start now, rather than waiting until January.

    I thought I'd try for 10 NSDs and up the amount when I do a full month in Jan.

    Have also signed up for the Sealed Pot Challenge so between the two will hopefully save quite a bit.
