Sorry all, confirming I read nothing, not a single page over the 3 days. Reading slump continues but only a week and half of work to go so fingers crossed for some reading over Christmas break.

Congratulations to all participants! We didn't quite meet our goal - but I think what we did was brilliant anyway!!

Good job us!! Thanks Brenda, I definitely had fun trying to get pages in even if I had other amazing stuff going on.

Great job everyone. Thanks for organising, Brenda. Have enjoyed all of them and look forward to doing them again in 2024 😃
Well done everyone! That's a great total for a busy weekend 🏆I'm already looking forward to the next one!
Whoo boy! Not the weekend I was expecting. The southerly that came through on Saturday night brought down the massive gum tree in front of our house - also the power and NBN lines. Fortunately it fell away from the house! Consequently no power Sunday, and still no NBN today! I've been a bit distracted is what I'm saying. ☺️ Anyway, my reading is:
Fri - 179
Sat - 205
Sun - 169
Tot - 553 pages
Mod
Thanks for your total - I'll adjust it above :)
