    I have been trying to work out what to go for this month as I will lose the last 8 days as we go on THAT holiday on Saturday 24th July. We have covered/booked/paid for the kennels for the dogs, train/diesel, overnighter for the Sunday night (thank you Big Sis), and got most of our clothes, so it is mainly spending money we need to raise.

    I have come up with £15 per day for July but as we need to make this by 23rd then it is actually over £20 we need to make over the days we have available to us.

    And I have made a start - a neighbour/friend gave us £30 towards our spending money for dog-sitting on Thursday when she was at a family funeral all day, and I have had some sales on eBay yesterday and today totalling £53.97 after fees, postage, etc so my first total is £83.97

    Sigh. Nothing so far.

    I keep getting my hopes up as I run a home-boarding business for dogs (they stay in my home when their owners are away on hols etc) and have had 3 enquiries this week, my prices are on my website and I charge the same as most other boarders; yet they email asking for prices and when I reply they never get back to me! SO annoying!

    Anyway...off to check my inbox for surveys AGAIN! :rotfl:
