#55 adding another £50, this brings me to £6750 and 90% of target.
I'd like to reach target by this time next year, so I'll continue saving at £50 a month but in 3 months of the year I'll save an extra £25. Once all the house renovations are done, I'll think about the next goal

#69 Pay day today. Put an extra £30 to EF bringing total up to £567/£6000. Getting close to first 10% of target! Think I'll feel a lot better once my regular savings amounts for this month come out and I'm up to £1000 as well.
