The Challenge
For the month of April, I will be living on 1 Pound Sterling a day (1st - 30th April) in the city of London. This challenge serves to explore the more mundane day-to-day activities we perform in our lives and the impact that financial constraints will have upon the individual.

The following services/consumables that are subjected to the budgetary constraints are:

Household and Personal Bills
Medical Emergencies / Acts of God
