    Just noticed I've been giving out numbers and adding totals as they have been given, I hadn't added where I'm up to!

    I'm at £30, I took £350 before 1st December and left the rest to boost next year's funds :)

    We had school Christmas dinner yesterday really wanted a nap after! Out for work do tomorrow night and then a wreath workshop on Sunday.

    Need to go shopping for a few gifts but that will be Saturday or Sunday near the place for the workshop, ooh yes, they do some nice food bits I can put in mini hampers I'm making for my sisters and niece. waiting for a delivery and I think I'll be done on Sunday, that's a bit of a result I'm usually still trying to get things done 21st/22nd.

    Morning all

    I seem to have fallen behind already with my £1 a day so I think the best way forward for me is to put the full months £1's in the pot on payday from here on is this okay ???
