Editor's Note

Welcome to the meta edition! Busy week was busy, with lots of challenges this time round. There's an extra section this week for your charity lots for helpthesouth which you can view here, and if you want your thread added, please let me know.

Also, please do jump up and down at me if I've missed something, because I'm having awful trouble getting LJ to load at the moment, so I may have closed one too many tabs in a fit of time-out related frustration.
