    No 63 reporting put in my monthly payment so i have a lovely 424 in the bank now. Building up nicely might need to use it though if our house goes through but hoping not to use it all.
    If you dream it can you do it????????

    Hello everyone from a wet and miserable part of the UK today:sad:


    On the bright side, I have logged on here to see some fantastic totals! Well done to us all!


    As usual I am juggling many plates so not able to come here quite as often as I should but keep going everyone, it will be worth every £ come the end of November;)


    All totals updated where requested.


    Take care
