    That spot is already taken by slowlyfading off course! :p

    I managed to get lucky last year and get the second spot but there's pressure that comes with near the top - people are more likely to see your progress when they look at the spreadsheet and so potential for a greater sense of shame if you don't meet your target.

    Hi SF, can I also join the 2017 thread. I am not fussy about the position either.
    If you can put me down for the same amount?
