I intermittently take part in this, I’m awful at tracking solo challenges. I’ve looked at this season’s prompts and have earmarked some books to fit. I have an ongoing spreadsheet for this hopefully I’ll be able to keep better track of it this season.

35559 Good morning all, it’s finally the weekend. Managed to finish An Ordinary Life and will finally have Wildfire done today. I will get an update posted later today. Going to get my nails done ready for my weekend away next week and have a wonder over to the “beach” with the dog.
Our local council have transported truckloads of sand to the local park and are putting on a beach party, complete with a punch & Judy show. 🤣

Hopefully everyone across the water is enjoying their holiday weekend.

35559 Mini Challenge

We have a Supergroup Challenge starting June 1st
Minotaur Maze

Make sure to check in regularly to our Mythic group to make sure you don't miss important prompts. This will be a collaboration between the 3 Mythic teams to complete the Maze which runs for the remainder of TT.

There will be another Team Mini In June and I suspect July also.

35559 Good morning all. Just catching up before I head into the office. Glad to see so many of you have checking to the private group. I think you’ll like the next challenge coming up we’ll have to work with our other Mythics to complete.

With Vicki we will end up with 180 BOM points for The Travelling Cat Chronicles which is a very strong start, there is still time to pick it up for points.

Started the Backroom BOM not something that would have crossed my radar but like Vicki, I want the points. I actually get annoyed with myself if I can’t do the BOM.

Hoping to finish The Unknown Beloved today and make progress on Wildfire
