I thought I would count the remaining challenges and found the numbers don't add up. There aren't 57, there are 62! How did I manage that? Does it mean I should ditch 5 I don't fancy or the ones that end up being the last 5? Or should I just get on with it? How am I going to have a snowball fight if it doesn't snow? Am I going to have to make a special trip to find snow?
