    can i vote for mum of twins too - i know that a lot of people have voted for my thread "spare a thought for Rick" but MOT deserves this award.

    i can raise money locally for the hospital and MOT surely deserves this award due to the unbelievable fight that she has in her.

    if i had the energy and time at the moment i would be driving down to her to support her

    I have followed MOT's harrowing story and wish her the best of luck with securing a new home for herself and the twins.:D I am pleased to see her up for the post of the month award :T

    I would like to nominate Sammy_kaye for this post though http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=697339

    She is a shining example of how best to manage a tiny budget and still feed your family well. She has obviously spent a lot of time putting this post together and hopefully it will be of help to a lot of people well done Sammy :D

    I'd like to nominate iwannabeonthe beach for diligently putting all the expiring competitions into one thread every day - it must take ages, but it's really helpful and thoughtful.
    Overpay!
