How I did it
How to climb the tower of Big Ben
It took me
90 days
It made me
thrilled to bits!

How I did it: My sister-in-law works for the House of Commons and has been involved in the Big Ben 150th anniversary project, creating an exhibition and website http://www.parliament.uk/bigben/.She suggested taking my family on a tour and today was the big day! It was brilliant. There were some other people on the tour so there were about 15 of us altogether. We climbed the 334 steps of the clock tower (with some breaks on the way!), ear-plugs wer… Read how I did it…

It took me
21 days
It made me
hyper but happy

How I did it: Every morning I made a huge cafetiere of coffee. All for me. At work I had yet more coffee throughout the day. Apparently this isn't a long enough description of how I did it, so I will have to waffle some more. At home, I drank it out of my trusty crocodile mug. At work, I drank it out of my tasteful china Mackintosh mug. The less said about the DP's mug which has pairs of cows shagging each other on it, the better. Read how I did it…
