    Hi Oompa Loompa, do you mean where can you access the weekly mini challenges?

    If so, then Kerri normally just announces them on this thread on Sat/Sun of each week and also puts that weeks challenge in her signature to remind everyone. I want to put a full list of all the mini challenges we've had since this challenge started on the first page but it means finding them all but I just haven't had time yet unfortunately!

    Wow Kerfuffle you are awesome. I was going to do a search :)

    Yes, pancakes count towards baking as they were charging stupid money in the shops for them yesterday :o

    I missed a week :o I'll have to come up with 2 for next week then, wohahahaha, I have to remember to update on the Sunday, sometimes it gets as late as Tuesday so please virtual slap hand please. I want to add to today's total. I'll have a look on my b/a after I finish my conference call and see if I can throw something at lloyds :) might only be pence,but it all counts right?

    So, were they dodgy film choices then and that's why you put them back...? :p

    Moon, Black Swan, and Pan's Labyrinth, so it took some willpower to put them back. It depends what your version of 'dodgy' is... they certainly had NOTHING to do with used underwear... :p

    Oooh 100 days of the challenge falling on MSEs birthday :money:

    Moon, Black Swan, and Pan's Labyrinth, so it took some willpower to put them back. It depends what your version of 'dodgy' is... they certainly had NOTHING to do with used underwear... :p

    Well at £23 it couldn't have had anything to do with used undies as we now all know the going rate is £50!!! :rotfl:


    ooooh Pan's labyrinth really freaked me out, just the guy with the hands on his face that tried to trap that little girl... :eek: I can do a pretty nifty impression of this demon/monster thing in the office, it's freakin hilarious especially for those who haven't seen the film and therefore just see me running past with my hands over my eyes and think I've taken some happy pills again... :rotfl:
