    Small Payment made today so my present total is:

    #038 £1388.32 / £4016.44

    I have almost reached the 35% mini target I had set myself for the end of the month, and we are only half way through! I should have challenged myself harder.

    But the second half of the month is always tighter for money, so maybe it was the right thing to do.

    I want to be at 50% by the end of April though that might be pushing it a bit! £620 to find in 6 weeks?

    Just a quick update from me, its been quite hard so far this month and all I want to do is spend some cash on stuff for the garden!


    Instead I've decided to do all the weeding as I've got a wedding to go to in 2 weeks, :eek:
