    An additional small change I have made since the beginning of the challenge, I now download my daily ticket onto my phone rather than printing ones out at the station (ticket X3 for a return as I also get a receipt!)

    Getting my 8 year old daughter heavily involved in the challenge! Sat outside the shower room shouting a 5 minute countdown through the door and managed to reduce the usual 15 min leisurely shower to three and a half minutes!!
