Nina | 354 comments August Update:
21880/25000 (88 %)
With another good reading month I should be able to finish this.

By the way, I just realised that my progress has never been updated in the summarised post. So in case the nick name is the problem (I normaly only link the original message to an update and hope this helps) but Ninaastrid = Nina.
I changed the name after participation. As there is already a Nina taking part, feel free to put me down as Nina2.
