Testing testing...
Hopefully added my progress to my signature, which should all but guarantee success....
Edit: Boom it worked.
I'll be following the rule that only money saved into savings accounts will be counted (i.e.: and not debt repayment; mortgage overpayment nor pension contributions, AVC or otherwise).
In theory, much of my saving will come in the second half of the year, so comfortable-ish with a slow start to this challenge, but resolutely sticking to my £6k target.0 -

Hello slowlyfading,
Thank you for organising the challenge in 2017; I have been very motivated to save decent amounts of money in the past two years, thanks to this thread. Please put me down for £7,000 again in 2018. Cheers.0
