    would definitely be a variety of challenges - I like it


    my contribution (after a few glasses of white as don't do the red)

    Easy - win something edible
    harder - win a hamper
    Random - win something used to cook with


    err - just realised that is probably all food related :D

    Well I think you are mean for saying no to X lol as XL is actually part of it's name. It's an odd looking thing.
    You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

    Those are good ideas, I like those. :T
    Food is good :D
    As I said it will be the Challengers choice ;)

    Do you not need several alcoholic beverages after catching up on this thread? :rotfl:

    I love Broadchurch tis a real shame it finished after only 3 seasons, Wild oats sounds rude :eek:

    And well done on the RC/Gleam thread :T

    Thanks, its taken awhile to set up, but I think the rafflecopter thread is working well now,

    I'd love several drinks but after almost 3 years of no alcohol I'd probably pass out after the second drink :rotfl:

    I've never watched Broadchurch! And probably not a good idea to start on Season 3 :) but I know my mum's a fan, so I'll probably pass it on to her.

    Any feedback appreciated please :T

    My idea for next year is

    Challengers Choose Challenges (try saying that after a couple of reds!!)

    My idea was to ask each challenger who took part to choose 3 challenges for the rest of us to do over the year.

    1) Easy
    (eg. win chocolate, win a book)
    2) Harder
    (eg win a FB comp, win cash)
    3) Random
    (eg win something red, win something plastic)

    This year we started with 50 players, but I think we are down to maybe 40 or less who are actually doing the challenge now :(

    To do the challenge above there would be 100 challenges to complete over a year, so we would need at least 30 players to start (and I will make up the rest :D )

    So do you like the idea or not?
    Would you join again next year or not?

    :beer:

    So instead of 50 challenges, we'll have 100 :eek: Didn't 50 make us crazy enough :rotfl:

    I'm in though :) Comping is my way of relaxing and de-stressing, challenges make it more interesting :D

    I think given the weather you should have moved onto Pimms!

    Okay given i have had the Pimms are you saying we all get to pick three challenges for everybody to do?

    So if 30 people take part then we would have 90 challenges?

    Yes 100 challenges, but I think they will be quite "bendy" ;)

    You will still be able to cross off UP TO 3 per day :D

    You just need to pop in here once a day to de-stress these lot are crazy :rotfl:

    You are correct missus :T

    If 50 take part you will have 150 challenges :eek:
    (No seriously I will adapt it to how many players we have it will be a maximum of 100 challenges ;) )

    Oh Pimm's not had that for a while, I hope you have a strawberry in it :D
