All bets need witnesses

I had a long entry typed - but thanks to the intrinsic bloody-mindedness of the Internet Explorer, I've lost it.
I don't want to type it again. It mostly consisted of how things are better in the morning. They are.
Anyway,
snowdrop24 and I have been having a civilised argument, about our respective hit counters. I think hers goes up faster than mine, she thinks mine goes up faster than hers.
ShippyLittleKitten: brb, hit counter checking
ShippyLittleKitten: 1271 - front page
Raven: *nods* mine went over 1500 yesterday, that's all I know.
ShippyLittleKitten: 1602 for yours
ShippyLittleKitten: *grrr*
Raven: why?!
ShippyLittleKitten: becuase yours goes up so quickly!
Then followed a period of me moaning because my journal entry was wiped, and then:
ShippyLittleKitten: mine...1703
Raven: see! yours is always above mine....
ShippyLittleKitten: no!
Raven: yes it is!
ShippyLittleKitten: it won't be for long! yours goes up a couple of hundred a day!
Then followed me trying my best to argue my case:
Raven: that's not true!
ShippyLittleKitten: is!
ShippyLittleKitten: mine has gone up....about 40 in a day
Raven: isn't!
ShippyLittleKitten: yours had gone up 100!
But the proof's in the pudding.
ShippyLittleKitten: anyway - i bet you anything your hit counter will reach 2000 before mine
Raven: I'll take that bet. If I lose, I'll imitate a coffee percolator.
ShippyLittleKitten: *stops self before turning this conversation into another did/didn't/cruvus conversation*
ShippyLittleKitten: hmm
ShippyLittleKitten: what do i have to do?
Raven: um.... *thinks* imitate a washing machine.
ShippyLittleKitten: oh god!
ShippyLittleKitten: how?
Raven: I leave that to your discretion.
It's a safe bet. I can't possibly lose.
