My total is £219 for may, much better than my april and march totals!!It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

Hi Mennie
Great figures! Only thing is, you might want to copy this onto the August challenge. You've posted this onto the May 2009 challenge, which is a bit out of date. But it sounds like you could give the August £10 a day people a run for their money! I only noticed because I am *wildly* out of date with my monthly challenges, and May is the last one I actually took part in.
See you on the other thread!2023: the year I get to buy a car0
