    Post #2 is all updated with your reported progress.

    I've also updated mine - keeping myself accountable with a cheeky £100 so up to 94.17% now. I will get back up to 100% :D

    Deleted_User - I have a spreadsheet with a formula added so my brain doesn't have to do any thinking for the percentages. ;)

    Keep on keeping on.

    £20 added today from my savings account which I transfer all the odds and ends into, think some people call that a tilly tidy?! Not sure why that just popped into my head.

    Anyhoo quite happy with that amount so far.

    We've been paid and I dont have anything to add to the emergency fund.

    DH took unpaid shared parental leave and was paid in error by work.
    In honesty we thought of keeping quiet but decided not to so we're going to live on my maternity pay.

    Any extra pennies we get will go to a vet bill I'm expecting to get this month so I can hopefully leave the emergency fund alone.
