    It was the smeg fridge that took it over the top.

    Thanks for organising this dunners.:beer:
    May keep a total for myself for next year as am joining in the 'This will be mine in 2009'

    I'm confused - I thought the 'This will be mine' was the challenge for next year - there is no £2009 for 2009 :confused:

  • I have just joined the this will be mine challenge, if there is a £2009 for 2009 will gladly join that too.. I want to keep my number 1978 though lol !!!
    Thanks to all posters and contributers :beer:
  • Although this has been a great challenge, I really thought that we went with kippers 'this will be mine' as the £2008 for 2008 seemed to have encouraged people to enter for stuff they didn't want just to increase their total :confused:

    People will probably still want to keep a total for themselves, but if the new challenge means they're aiming for prizes they really really want rather than anything at all with a value, surely that's better?:confused:

    Hi all

    It's been fun doing the £2008 for 2008 challenge but I think that Kipper's idea for 2009 is a fab idea and, to be honest, I've struggled at times to keep up with you all what with work and other commitments! That's not to say someone else couldn't take over for 2009, but it would be nice if we all worked towards one common "goal" for 2009 rather than lots of different ones!
