The 3 Cosmeston Street Challenge

We have decided to set ourselves monthly challenges in our house. The first one is to drink 2 litres of water per day! This is the recommended daily amount which we discovered upon reflection that none of us usually manage, especially Beckrum and Shumi who drink tea and juice too often! We therefore have measured the volume held in each of our various types of cups and have designed a score sheet (available for viewing on our lounge door). So far Smellon and I are winning with one day completed. Beckrum was the loser yesterday - she only managed 1 litre! It did provide an amusing evening of trying to complete the 2 litres in the space of 2 hours with lots of drinking and hence loo trips! I'm guessing spreading out your consumption is the way forward but as we decided to set the challenge late last night this was not possible.

So if we ever come to visit you and you provide us with a beverage (water or squash are the ones that count) please could you measure the volume beofore giving it to us so we can note it down after perambulating back to our house.
