    Sorry to hear about your OHs job, my dad is in the same boat, although I think it may end up being a blessing in disguise in their case as the redundancy will pay off the IVA.

    I set last month's challenge at just £5 a day as I was finding money-making tricky but after some serious grinding (and the luck of getting a second job - freelance but every little bit counts) I wound up averaging £18 a day! (All of which went towards paying off my overdraft!)

    So this month I'm going to try to push myself even harder. Please put me down for £20 a day! That's £620 for the month. Eep! :eek:

    Best of luck everyone!
