Hello everyone.
I'm really sorry for my absence lately. I've been having my own problems haha
Thats all the totals and the spreadsheet updated. Were just under a grant total of £13,000 now.
This is just fantastic. Together we have already saved £13,000 and its just the start of July.
Lets keep this going. Hopefully I will have more time in the coming weeks to be on here more.

I had edited the first page with new links to both the spreadsheet and the update form.
Spreadsheet - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1--l09j1PnNx1ZnrhtHq2_5XGLUI2cvWnuEusqXQsse4/edit#gid=1990687179
Update form - https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1m3GVJ9dDAdjaNUlIV-jpUjvuDGDvZPjZueBVho63oD4/viewform
Can someone check and report back if these work or not.
Thanks

Worked for me too McF thanks. Hope all ok with you. I have put in £31 for July so now up to £243. Form completed. Doing ok on the savings front except have splashed out on theatre tickets for three trips in July/August!! I bought two tickets for a matinee for Matilda as a special birthday treat for my mum for her 80th and it cost me £172
Also paid for our holiday for Greece in September - hope things sorted out there by then and money put aside to buy travel system for our first grandchild due in October so expensive month all in all.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free Wannabe, Budgeting and Banking and Savings and Investment boards.
