This year I took part in GISHWHES (greatest international scavenger hunt the world has ever seen) and I got to use some of my crafty skills for some of the challenges. Some things ended up better than I though some not so good but overall I’m really happy with the results, I had a great time, met some great people in my team who have some crazy skills, I however will be eating skittle for the foreseeable future.
This is some of my contribution to our team… already looking forward to next year!
