Number 20 lodged my form for May £637.94 does not include any bounce back of share values, but the reduction is considerably less (under 5% now). I did count the income dividends as they are part of our savings (not the accumulation dividends though)Save £12k in 2025 #2 I am at £4863.32 out of £6000 after May (81.05%)

I was away at the end of Apr/beginning of May, so I didn’t get round to updating last time, so I’m reporting a £12,757 for April & May combined.Lockdown/general Covid-ness has reduced our outgoings a bit, which has offset a (thus far) temporary drop in pay.3

I'm setting a new target of £15,000, following the share crash and some recovery. That's approximately my original monthly pro rata target, but just applied to the rest of the year. I feel though that it's in the lap of the gods due the markets!
