Introduction
I've just had a thought this also needs to be six hundred words so if I do more than six words per thing then I should do it.
This is for a challenger set by Judey Kalchik that you can read here.
It is 22:42 and I am going to start now.

congratulations on completing the challenge!!! you made it look so easy.
good job!👍🏾
I love the way your mind works! Calling yourself a centurion after completing 100 of these was so clever. And yes, you gotta stay hydrated when you’re someone who loves to walk. 😉
Yay. You finished. I was late too, but like you, didn't give up. Well done.
My sheets are black. Not dirty that's the colour. Hahahhhaaha I laughed so much for that!
Bravo!!! 100!!! Loved it!!!♥️♥️💕
"I love being a centurion" really caps it off. You could take pictures of cats IN the Roman ruins if you really want to compound things. Then that just makes 99 though. Nice work, enjoyed.
Great job, Mike!! :D
I could sense you rounding home! Great job Mike!
Nice ❤️😉👍
