#175 here with £250 overpayment for Sept.
Many thanks0 -
#18 reporting in - Sept's OP = £1584.68.
YTD = 6484.71/7500
I'm cautiously hopeful that I'll achieve target in Nov and then 8K in Dec - which will be double my original 2018 target. As I was struggling at the start of the year to see how I'd even get to 4k, I'm rather pleased :T
Thanks, pawlala
