This wheel has been such fun with you, even if we couldn't preserve our 1st place in the end!

[Sophie, The other one]

I'm no good with images and especially videos - but a big thank you from the Hobbits for a challenging last round! You pushed us so hard and we are now all going to collapse with a midnight snack before sleeping for days.
