Summer Holidays Challenge !!

  • Im a teaching assistant so count me in as well, though im sorta cheating a bit as i already have a summer holiday job for 4 weeks. BUT i have roughly worked out my take home from it at being £455, sadly i'll be paying that bit extra on tax though. So i have £545 to aim for which is going to be a lot harder.

    Im not working the 1st or the last week of the summer holidays though and during my summer job i have the odd day off or am only working 2 hours (its summer playscheme).

    Will start tomorrow at 3:35pm when i finish work....
