The breaks were well and truly applied to my savings progress back in the summer! Mainly because I decided I needed a holiday and hence we went away for a week but also had some other unplanned costs which meant savings had been limited.0

Currently on track to reach target by end of the year and that was with not being able to save anything for a few months due to "life" throwing in a few challenges....
