    Just a quick note to say that if anyone would like to keep last year's number, please let me know until the 31st of December. After that, all remaining numbers will be available for anyone who wants them. You're of course still more than welcome to sign up for the challenge in the new year :)

    Hi Julicorn

    If possible please can I have a lower number after the deadline (currently #38). I'm struggling to scroll down the S/S.

    Either way, can I please increase my goal from £6,500 to £9,500, we're aiming high for 2020.

    Thanks

    Please reduce my target to £10,500. It was slightly too big to avoid overpayment charges. Thanks!
