No 117 updated chart, I am still in amber
I am about £372 behind the target or thereabouts if my calcs are correct. Which means each month I am getting more and more away from the 8.33% target. Will try and catch up but had a bad OP month last month with a few high payouts for other stuff.
Should try and get back on track now.MPs left feb '08 276- Dec 13 36 :T MB Jan 10 ~ £82,377 Dec 13 ~ £29987

Hi all,
I thought I had filled in the form last time (March) but my figures never made it on to the chart. I left it again till this time and once again have filled in the form. Everyone is talking about the changes on the new form. I just wonder if I'm missing something. Can someone give me some guidance> Thanks0 -

Have just posted update. Still in the green but arrival of DS2 in July will mean 7-9 person-months of unpaid leave so a major dent in our finances. I think I might be starting to see red!0
