    #79 checking in, rounded up what was left in my account for the remainder of the month and sent it to my savings, so now at £522/£4000. I know I won't be able to chuck as much at it all the time as priorities for spending and saving will change, so am making the most of it while I can.
  • #44.  £30 Please Dobbibill.

    Many thanks
