Well I've got to W3R2 so think I might make it - I surprise myself every run I don't have much will power but so far I've not cheated or died!

I'll keep looking at the forum for information and reassurance that I can keep going.

You can go in your profile and change the settings so that you get a notification only when someone replies to a post you have written rather than someone posting a new post .

Sorry I haven't explained that very well, I have confused myself now ! :-D xxx
