    Thanks

    Sorry this got missed, you have number #17, I have updated the first page, and you target.

  • Hi Westie,

    Thanks so much for running this challenge again.

    I managed about £230 in the end for Christmas and it was such a help, so I'd love to take part again. I don't mind whether I have a new number or stay 24 - whatever's easiest for you.

    My target is £250, ready for December 2017, although this may get depleted in June for my holiday money.
