    Vix, that was the one 🤣! And yes, I'm sure it took way longer than the 9 minutes they said. There was a second one the same, but I decided on the first page I couldn't cope with the same thing again and got up and went for a run instead

    Aaahh, that makes (a bit of) sense. I was consistently a 4, so hopefully I'm OK! Although, in other news....
