Put £200 in on payday so I am now on £300, one of my jobs is a contract which runs out in July, so I may need this then.

Hi (No 2 here) long time no savings!
I had all my work done on the house and I love it!
I need to start my savings pot up again but the rates are really low so not sure whether to buy premium bonds and treat that as savings once i build my pot up a bit first (keeping my £3,000 target)
Ive added £100 this month (total £125)
Love your spread sheet, im sure that will speed things up for you
Stay safe everyone and thanks again x

Ooops, forgot to post!  #34 £2400/£6000. I should end this year well past half way although I’ve probably jinxed it now 🤫 🙊  Ooh, I’ve only just realised iPad emojis work, there’ll be no stopping me now 🏖 💷 🥳

A top up of £350 from the lodger. 

So many people around me are losing their jobs, it makes me appreciate how lucky I am and also reminds me that it could happen to anyone when you least expect it, so better to be prepared with a sufficient emergency fund. I hope none of you are at risk of losing your jobs, keep on saving while you can! 🤞
