Looking like an ok start to the year although, it could of been better having spent £110 at the vets last week and with another appointment on Thursday looming it may bring the final figure down again, currently sat at £990.15 for this month.
Will update on Friday :-)Born Free....Taxed to Death.

Just used the update form. Got paid yesterday, so I've moved £1549 from my current account to my savings. Now within near striking distance of the 2016 ISA limit, just need to save a £5,000 buffer before the beginning of April.“And all shall be well. And all shall be well. And all manner of things shall be exceeding well.”
