I think that deserves half marks, Viv, and for effort!
I'll declare this challenge over now, but will leave it for Nik to work out scores and prizes when she's next here.
Who is doing the next one?
Any volunteers?

I think Mary may be planning on doing one Tuesday to Thursday, Viv, so perhaps you and she can work something out for the week and weekend, depending when you're both available?

You may wish to check my addition, but I believe the results are:
Viv - 16 points McChell - 1 point TracyB - 1 point
Viv, if you can please choose a prize/s to the value of £16 on behalf of a rescue and mark that in green in the sales thread/s, I'll arrange to get it posted to them.
Thanks all who played in this challenge.
Can anyone carry on and have a go at the unanswered questions and for a small bonus prize?
