    #71 Adding £500 - Total is now £10,200. Which takes me over target 🥳

    For the next few months until I go on maternity leave and deplete those savings I'm going to focus on building up my mortgage overpayment fund and channel some money into saving for a holiday next year.

    Thanks for all of your support and encouragement on this thread and good luck!
