    #49 Just cashed out on prolific £8.58 taking my monthly total to £97.43
    Sorry, can I just check - is this your total for the year or total for the month? Just asking because if I just add £8.58 to what I've got logged for you so far, it shows me £18.12 for Feb, and £97.43 for the year. Have a look when you get the chance and let me know if Iogged anything incorrectly. 
    Sorry Julicorn that should have said year not month I'll get this amended
