We love them @cathybird. So much so that I'm going to to set an annual target just to get the pink elephant. 😁 Would you put me down for 120 days please which is my monthly target, just x12. 😁cathybird said:@RobM99 whether they're worse or better or somewhere in between, I hope everyone likes them! x

@RobM99 @maman @leftatthetrafficlights @marahouti thank you

It means a lot that people like them.
@maman yay, I've updated the annual targets
@marahouti ha, it's more a democratic thing, 14 is the emoji the people doing between 10 & 14 days usually end up getting, but people doing higher targets get that emoji too, so it's nice if it's a really appealing emoji I think? xx
