    #02 declaring for the year...

    Paid £689.32 this month, so my 2019 total is...

    £9,491.35 / £10,000


    95% of my goal, which although I didn't meet it, I'm so proud of!

    Now need to set my target for next year and head over to the 2020 thread...

    Well done everyone for your efforts, whether you met, exceeded or didn't quite reach your target. Every penny paid off is a step towards the target so well done all. :T
