    Feel my motivation flagging already :-( But suppose it shouldn't be easy if it's called a challenge!
    Might try and put some eBay listings on although I'm only selling things for 99 pence here and there - phew hard work!

    Hey, I'm a bit late to the party but would love to join. I'm unemployed as temp contract fell through just before Xmas :( I'm pg so difficult to find something before maternity leave. Would love to raise £2014 to redo the peeling and decrepit bathroom!
