Mel,
I think the challenge this week should be to see how many people you can get to say “cracking cheese gromit” in normal conversations with you.

Great video Mel! : )
My challenge for you is very ‘sam-esque’. The challenge is to record places you visit and events throughout the week using illustration : )
If you do it, I will too and we can compare notes : D

OK…. here’s my challenge.
Everyone is feeling the pinch these days…. well, except maybe web hot-shots who work at Aardman… so my challenge is to see how frugal you are.
I propose that for one work-week, you eat a minimum of 2 meals a day but don’t spend a penny of your own money on food. That includes eating stuff you’ve already paid for out of your fridge. Beg, borrow, charm and steal.
Can’t imagine you’d find that too hard.

Loving all of the challenges so far – thinking there could be a couple of week’s activity there! woot! Who cares if people think I’m a nutter – they already do right? x

A very touching dedication…
I think Dan is onto something there. One week, no money on food but you must have at least two meals per day. Now, I think one rule should be that the person(s) from whom you obtain food know nothing about the challenge.

My brain isn’t letting me be creative enough to come up with a good chalenge. I do want to say I’m sorry for your loss (Olive).

Challenge: Do a proper introduction to your randommel.com videodiary in… sign language.
That’ll keep you busy for a while

What a cool idea. I think you should use all your womanly charms (up to a point) to see how many freebies you can obtain throughout the week. It can involve theft, but obviously nothing that’ll get you sent down – that could give your random, weekly video a whole new slant. Plus, those butch lesbians inside would eat a pretty thing like you alive, lol.
