    Thanks Lorne :)

    I'm afraid, I'm not going to have the time to do another challenge between now and Christmas. I'm happy to hand the baton (boom boom :p) if someone would like to take over.

    For the last few months I've been doing the make £10 a day (well doing make £5 a day and I've found that really motivating - much easier to keep my interest so I'm going to carry on with these and see how I get on.
