Ok guys, my name is jornvanschaik. I have most of you already but if not I am the one you
will want to add because I will be the one making the call (unless I am absent, in which
case I will notify you in advance. If that doesn't happen - who will be second in
command? Fabricio?)

I can't make the first session. I'm still traveling through next Sunday and I don't have any of my gear with me.

In terms of using the website for the little challenges, we could do it a couple of ways. Maybe the simplest
would be to create a page for each person and have them update it with each challenge that they complete.
Other users could use the comment box on the page to submit corrections and suggestions. Alternatively,
each person could create a new blog post when they complete challenge(s).

I've posted the list of little challenges on the
website.

Great riff, thanks a lot!

A stupid question maybe, but how do we ensure that we all see and can comment once it is on the web site?
Do we post something here when we have completed a challenge, or do we get some sort of message from
the web site?

While we are waiting to get everything sorted out, I'll post my second challenge. I am on a roll and I do not
want to lose momentum :-) As always happy for any corrections.

LITTLE CHALLENGES RUSSIAN 2

1. У меня маленькая семья. Я замужем, и у меня есть две дочери.

2. Их зовут Кьартан, Катрина и Силье.

3. Им сорок семь, тринадцать и шестнадцать лет.

Oh - and we still have room for 4-6 more Skypers. Who's in? And thanks to Tarvos and fabriciocarraro for
offering to be pilot and co pilot:-)

Well done with your challenges so far, Cristina. I wonder how you're finding them? Too hard, too easy? Just right? I can't help thinking of Goldilocks and the Three Bears whenever I write something like that.

More than anything I find them incredibly inspiring and useful. I have never been able to write anything at all
in Russian, so to just sit down and do it, and force myself through it makes me learn more than I thought
possible. But if I were to chose one of your three options, I think just right would be my answer. :-)

I've just had a look (not a real try so far), but they seem to be adequately ranging in difficulty.
