    Hi everyone, firstly, I must apologise for disappearing so suddenly from this challenge. A lot has happened in my life over the last few months, and this wasn't a priority. I have been adding too my virtual pot when I can, so I've just declared a transfer of £94.70 to get my stats up to date.

    The main change in my life is that I am now separated from my husband, and this has also had a huge impact on savings, income and debt. I'm plowing through though and hope to get things back on track slowly.

    Hope everything is ok with everyone here xxxx

    Hey Westie

    Sorry I've not submitted the forms - I should know better :( but sometimes I do a quick transfer then forget to submit the form. For Oct the additional payments were:

    22/10 £7.98
    28/10 £5.35
    30/10 £4.68
    Total at 31/10 was £349.47

    Awww what a good boy you have, what a lovely surprise trip. Berlin is on my list of places I would like to visit too. I hope all goes well at the end of the month for you, and wish you a speedy recovery xx

    Hey Rhibi

    Sorry to hear you've been through such a difficult time. I hope as time goes by things start to get easier for you in all aspects of your life. Well done for still trying to put a bit by.

    Thanks LittleTinks, I have updated the amounts from October and make the total for October and the year as £349.27.

    Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery I have plans for Christmas :rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi RhiBi,

    Sorry to hear things have been tough for you lately, but well done for coming back and updating us, it gives you some normality in your life to rely on your virtual friends here at SPC,

    As long as you are potting you are doing better then yesterday, just remember that

    £12.11 added to the VSP this week!

    Thanks for your kind words, life doesn't always go the way we expect it to does it.... I'm plowing through and finding a new kind of normal... in many ways I am happier, as things haven't been right for a long time.

    I just need to get through Christmas, and in January I can hopefully really sort my finances out!

    Well done!:beer:

    Intrigued by your signature, particularly the amount of books you've decluttered:T. I love a good declutter myself (seem to be permanently on one:rotfl:) but find it so hard to let go of books, even though I'm drowning in them:o
