evening all, another pound in the tin today, £12/3650

I'm still keeping at it religously adding my £1.50 a day. I did think, at the end of last week, that I was going to have to use it as I got in a bit of a mess with my account but I'd underestimated how much was left in the bank so, so far, the savings are still intact.
2 weeks until payday so fingers crossed that I can make the money in the bank last but I might have to 'owe' to my savings until payday.:o0 -
Evening All - added another £1 to mine tonight, so thats £12At least the fish fingers are still frozen, that's what I keep telling myself (Truly Madly Deeply)0
