    Hi everyone :wave:

    I'm new to this but would love to give it a try.. I just moved back to England, living with my mum for a bit til I'm more settled. There is a LOT of junk in my room that I haven't seen/thought about for years so I wanna give this challenge a try!

    Please put me down for £10/day.
