Ten Pound Pom - £10 a week challenge

A day in the life of a British student trying to live off just £10 a week (excludes rent and household bills) for 9 months to raise money for 4 different charities: Tommy's (the baby charity), Home-Start, Lupus UK and Hughes Syndrome. Follow my progress, and please please sponsor me to do this, by donating to at least one of the charities. You can find out about the charities and donate by clicking on the 'Just Giving Widgets'. It doesn't matter how much you give...every little helps!
