Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments Great start! Welcome to the challenge.

I read the 44 Scotland Street book a couple of years ago and bought the next four in the series but have not read them yet. My next one will finally happen now though. :)

Janice (jamasc) | 60087 comments Shouldn't it be "in my hand", as in a bird in the hand?

You're doing great. I still just have one site completed.

Hehehee... yeah, stuffing the bird into the pocket is just cruel.
And thank you!
I just love this challenge (the creativity of it) - I guess that is one of the reasons I have almost completed the sites :)
Still more than half of the year ahead to finish all sites ;)
