I am in. It is my dissertation year of my degree, so I am going to let saving take a back seat until May when that is handed in. However, I should also be starting proper full time work come October, so saving can happen more then. I am going to keep my target at £3,000, but it will be unequal through the year again. Thanks SF!

Hello
Could I have a goal of £6k please, last years was too optimistic and as I have never saved 6k it'll still be something to focus on.
Many thanks0 -
