Hi Vicky, Congratulations on the new baby, hope all is going well.

I'm sure it being Christmas and all you could use your book for the Pumpkins! Given the time difference, 😉

Merry Christmas. Season's Greetings and happy reading all. Hope there are some books in your stockings.

Bergmonch is defeated.

Next Vegi Monster is the delightfully named Vampire Pumpkin!

Ooh Karen, a Rutherfurd I haven't read! Trying not to be tempted.. but failing.

Any new Monster wheels in the New Year?

Can you believe we are coming into Year 3 of the Monsters. 😍

Woo hoo everyone. That’s fantastic. What a great team!

Special shout out to our Captains who did an awesome job with the house keeping. Thank u! And Richard, who was a reading machine!

Hope everyone has a lovely Christmas and happy new Year. And Santa brings you lots of books in your stocking. 🎄

See you all next Challenge.

I think that’s true Karen. All those sparkly decorations and winter wonderland as we usually swelter in 40 degree heat while eating and drinking way too much! 😘

Thanks for those great Christmas Markets tips. I have noted them for when we start planning. 😍

So completely off topic. But question for our European team mates.

Next year my friend and I have been besties for 50 years through thick and thin. We are thinking of doing a Christmas Markets trip to celebrate, husbands, kids and grand kids not allowed , lol.

What are your favourite ones, and the ones to avoid. Thanks! 🥰
