    HI
    Pls could you let me know what page the table is on 
    Im unsure of my number (was no 2 - skye blue) and would like to add £400, think that should bring me up to £500
    Thanks

    Hi skye_blue - you are indeed #2
    We aren't using the table any longer on page 1 - we moved to a spreadsheet a few months ago which you can find on this link
    Well done on adding to your pot
    keep on keeping on
    Dobbi ;)

    Hi Wolfsong12 of course you can join - welcome aboard. :)
    I have added you to the spreadsheet along with your goal and progress - you are member #50 ;)
    You are off to a great start and already at 1.50% to target - it's not a race, just keep adding to it when you can and if you need to use it for something then that is what it's there for.
    Keep us updated with your progress or even any challenges and we'll all be cheering you on from the sidelines.
    Keep on keeping on.
    Dobbi ;)

    I'm currently at £1000 and want to initially get to £3050 as my 3 month EF, then build up to 6 months. I'm afraid that if try to go for the 6 month EF straight away it might seem unfeasibly large so baby steps... 😉
