25p TT this morning! Wow! Going to take a while to get to my target at this rate! Lol
Just been so busy recently hence the lack of posts. Trying to get back into a routine. Watch this space.

Afternoon one and all,
Another TT bundle of £1.98 transferred over, along with my £225 bonus for May, brings my savings up to £1,271 since May 1st. I'm quite pleased as I'm £467 saved for June out of a target of £750 - well over half way!
I've got expenses from May (not paid yet even though it was submitted early May - Moral: don't post anything in the postbox on Hollinwood Avenue as it disappears!!!), and from June which total £470 so that'll get paid in too - we're well going to smash the target this month!! Pressure off.
I hope everyone is OK - I've not been around much to chat. Hope that will change a bit now I'm slightly less busy.

Ha!
Famous last words!
I haven't died! I'm still alive and saving like mad.
Another £470 expenses yesterday and £80 saved from the £2 coin tin. I've still to count Penelope Pig - Pocket Change Collector, and there's £36 from Monday's relief group and some from tonight's relief group but I haven't done the figures for that yet.
Target definitely reached for June but don't know how much yet.

Managed to save £1,380 in June so almost 25% of my £7,500 goal achieved in just 2 months.
It's been hard work this month but well worth the reward.Mortgage at end 05/2007: £90200

Great result Thistle, well done :j.A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Thanks Gallygirl.
I think July might be a bit leaner than June was though, so I'm glad to have a bit of a head start.
