  3. Hello, dear Assia.
    I am not sure to understand what you mean. Sorry!
    Action 4 on the blog page normally corresponds to waht we have written in the homework book before the holidays or am I wrong?
    The only "extra" actions on the blog page are 'Action 1 ' to 'Action 3' that you cann add to your Christmas File or to your Diary in your PtFo,as you like. Hope that things are clearer now for you. Miss B
