My man got a wildlife camera for his birthday from his parents and now he is complaining that this is much more a present for me than for him 🙂 (In reality he is quite happy, that I deal with the crappy 90s interface of the thing).
So just for your inspiration: We have been nine people and everyone had to make a distribution for the three days together. Show the others something, invite them to create.
