    Not really up on loans info I'm afraid, there is a loans forum on here where people might be able to give you more help on that one.

    Hope the exhibition goes well! Have you thought about selling online too?

    Good luck :)

    Hi

    if you do not know how the rest is going, you need to keep a spending diary.
    If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing
  • With regard to stock photography. I agree you don't make much but the agency does most of the work and admin. having spent a lifetime in photography I can tell you it won't make you rich (unless you are very lucky, talent does not come into it, but luck and business acumen do).

    Place the pics with as many libraries as possible and watch the money trickle in, it is after all money for nothing if the pictures exist already and you haven't had to go out and shoot them specially

  • Just wanted to say that I wish I had £285 disposable income each month!

    Food for the both of us (2 adults) for a month costs £80 to £100. Have a look at the old-style board for info on how to make cheap meals.
