Hi Challengeers.
Sorry to keep you waiting, but yes, I have been a bit busy over the last few days (the conference was BRILLIANT!!!)
Anyway, at last a moment to give a bit of encouragement to all those who didn't quite make it to the top in the SPRING Challenge, but still did very well. Give yourselves a pat on the back.
Love, Deb
