    #190 reporting. I did it! £500 in August pushes me to £12,000! 100% of my year's target! I've never been able to save this much before so I'm very very happy with it!

    Just another £13,000 to go before I'm at my overall deposit target now!

    Well done! :beer: That is fab. :T
  • Gang,

    Another apology for being truly shocking at updating over the summer!! Lots of holidays and trips away are the excuse - and also the reason for lower-than-normal savings!! However, a great time had by all, so no guilty feelings!

    I have saved £400 in July and will update August at the end of the month, but looks like it will be a similar figure!! Needing to knuckle down to the end of the year to hit target now!!

    Lots of love & luck,

    Shoot xxx
