    Hoping to go for 3 weeks over christmas and new year next year, OH was born in Sydney and he has family out there so hoping to stay with them for a bit.

    Need about £4-5k though to do it all with flights and spending money etc :eek:

  • Hi all,

    Just seen your new challenge thread, Jen. It's a fab idea but I'm not sure how I'd do it..! I will join in though and put all the money I make into a separate account. Should be fun even if I don't make much! :D

    I've just bought a bracelet on ebay... it's gold, I didn't realise the seller also had a silver one otherwise I would have bought the silver! I'm so annoyed with myself. I've emailed them though to see if they will let me swap but I don't blame them if they won't let me :o
