It's Friday and time to find your Friday feeling, dust it off and time to party Al's away for the weekend, so lets prove that we can still have fun when we are left on our own!!! So I am going to list challenges over the weekend which can be done individually or as pair or in teams. I'll post them up at ad-hoc intervals over the weekend, so one needn't be completed before the next one. Each challenge will have points awarded and the winner (person/couple/team) will win a prize at the end of it. Please get family/friends/forum members to join in to increase the fun. The more that play the greater the prize can be! Can you let me know if you are keen to play and I'll start posting challenges Challenge 1 - Won by Dray/Viv Challenge 2 - Won by Mcchell Challenge 3 - Won by Mcchell Challenge 4 - Won by Mcchell Challenge 5 - Won by Armargo Challenge 6 - Won by Jutta Challenge 7 - Won by Jutta Challenge 8 - Won by Mcchell Challenge 9 - Won by Jutta Challenge 10 - Won by Mcchell Challenge 11 - Won by Mcchell Challenge 12 - Won by Jutta Challenge 13 - Won by Armargo Challenge 14 - Won by Mcchell
