    Hi Slowlyfading - can I ask you to change my target too please, I want to aim for £15,000, hopefully that will keep me really motivated :D

    Got my First Direct regular saver opened today (in OH's name), thinking of doing one in mine. Interest rates seem much better than our ISA's.

    Thanks I might need it, but if it stops me frittering (which I'm very good at) then it's got to be worth aspiring to :D
