People seem to have enjoyed this one a lot. :slightly_smiling_face: Shall we make it a regular thing? I could do one every Hump Day. Maybe pick 5 cards, so 5 questions per section if 10 would be too big/off-putting for one post? (I’m happy to do 10 cards/60 questions if everyone is up for it though :+1:)
