    Wishing everyone a successful week:beer:.


    Just received my payment for a week's phonebook delivery and that will be heading straight to my EF:j. Will tot up at the end of the month as there are other payments in the pipeline too (survey redemptions and cashback which have become payable at long last)

    Evening everyone, hope you are all well. I am really happy to report that I have managed to reach my EF target of £8500.I'm going to concentrate now on saving to help my son pay for his wedding in August then after that I will hopefully be back with a new EF target to work towards.

    Helen thank you so much for being such a brilliant support on here :T

    Helen my usual monthly update from me #2

    I took money out for the MOT - just standard stuff like pads and discs etc

    Had a little extra this month so managed to reach my target - then decided I wanted to round it up to an even number so opted for £9000 aka 100% - reached :T :T :T

    I still had a tiny little bit left over so have decided to start again with a new target of £5k for my new car (this will hopefully not be for sometime as it went through an MOT this week) - new total £174.71 aka 3.49%.

    Don't think I'm leaving though because with a new target in place I still have plenty to do and focus on.......I'll also be cheering everyone on too.

    Keep on keeping on.

    Dobbi :D

    I have moved my funds around as I bought my Euros yesterday and decided to put £100 into the emergency fund and I have £750 turned into Euros €800 for the week should be enough as we are self catering.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    We go for a week each Easter as long as she can go see the Dolphins she's happy.
