    hi @ET22 image and welcome image to our lovely thread! I've added you to the list, best of luck with the challenge! Thanks for setting a target too (though it struck me that 12 is quite high if only because Feb is such a short month? there are only 20 days left, so a target of 10 or even 8 might be easier? Just a thought, it's your choice obviously) :):)image
