I’m a bit like you Abba I have money on my next account and I have an amazon card then my main credit card. I’m desperate to get my next account cleared though. It was pretty much at a £1000. I’m doing the 1% challenge for that to help me. You are just so good with your money Abba it’s great to see. I love reading your diary xx0
