All the best!

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and all the best in 2022!

Stay safe.

And well.

More statistics - Sufferfest

Inspired by the Duolingo progress, I also did some Sufferfest-ing statistics. Or am I supposed to say Systming?

So, in the last five months, I've spent 102 hours and 15 minutes Suffering. That is, on average, 40 minutes a day! 

That is a lot of suffering :-D

Unfortunately, I cannot give a yearly statistics, as the first half of the year I was either Les Mills-ing or Rouvy-ing the French passes.

Duolingo

Duolingo just calculated my yearly progress.

Extrapolating to the end of the year: 696 day streak and 3537 minutes spent learning. Mostly French, also a bit of Italian.

Whoa, this is almost 60 hours of active learning.

Still not much compared to the hours spent passively learning by watching French films and series ;-)

Christmas cards!

With most of the Christmas cards on their way, I can finally reveal this year's design. I must admit, never before did I have this much trouble making the cards as sub-millimetre precision was required.

They are lots of fun. They work. 

But I am making something simpler next year!

 

P.S. The inspiration obviously came from  Rufus Butler's Gallop! - a wonderful children's book with plenty of such 'scanimations'.
