    I'm aiming for as much as I need to pay off my barclayloan if no emergency arises :rotfl:

    Phew.....that is scary. We have no savings to speak of. Or cover for loss of earnings - apart from the mortgage - which you've just reminded me that I haven't increased since increasing the mortgage payments. Really must get a grip on that.

    This whole "life" mullarky is not easy is it.....
