Hi GRC, do you mind if i join you? I am planning to save £5k too, within the next 12 months.
I also want to take my kids on a foreign holiday, so I realy need to get a move on.
I only started last week, but I hope you dont mind me joining and subscribing

Almost halfway there GRC! :beer:

New update £2563/£5000 51% the way there!

OH is now unemployed due to his 12 week contract ending, so depending on how quick he gets another job will affect the savings pot. Hopefully this month he will get a full months wage.

I see you've passed the halfway mark! :beer:
The pot really is filling up now! I hope your OH manages to find work soon - he has been doing very well, hasn't he? That would help you to keep moving towards your goal!
I've had to abandon my original goal, for now!
One horse is quite enough to afford for the moment... and we have an expensive but exciting 6 months coming up, finishing off our house (finally, we got mortgage approval!) and saving to furnish it, as well as working towards becoming debt free.

But with some hard work, I would hope to be back on track to start again saving for my €5k horse/horsebox pot next summer.

Meanwhile, it is great to see you getting there! :T

Grrr..had to start from scratch after some expensive repairs to my car this week.
Oh well, onwards and upwards!
