    Evening all, no. 38 here, I have been so flat out with a project I have been working on I haven't had time to work out my updates for May or June until today. For May it was a negative number, -£94.53, but for June much better, £1,190.65, bringing my yearly total so far to £8,571.97. :)

    #129 declaring £383 for June.

    Managed to put aside £50 for Christmas in there as well.

    July is set to be a hard month. A lot of money flying around, mostly out the door and into someone else's pocket, but I am determined to scrape something out and into the savings account.

    I've just got to put my head down and keep going forward.

    Just £216 saved this month but I have just come back from holiday :) That's hopefully all my big expenses for the year gone (excluding Xmas).

    Total for the year is £1345 .. Not on target for halfway through the year so I'm hoping I can make up the difference in the second half!
    Save 12K in 2017 #023 = £1345/ £6000 (22.41%)
