  • I'm happy to report I exceeded my target before getting to December. So happy with how I did considering it was my first year doing it. Thank you Westie for all the support and guidance. I will be transferring a little more this month hopefully but won't update as I rarely get chance to come on here. Well done everyone!! Stay safe and have a lovely holiday season :)

    Well Done Littletinks,

    You finished on 121.36% on #5 and 100% on #10 thanks amazing work as you have saved £2164.09 this year, that's a good amount, that you wouldn't have saved if you hadn't been along with me for the ride.

    I normally set up the next challenge in that bit in between Christmas and new year, pending that I am not being whisked away somewhere for ones Birthday, (I say this as the boys birthday was during lockdown and he is saying if he couldn't celebrate then I won't, but you know what he is like he likes surprising me)

    Roll on 2021 I've had enough of 2020...

    Westie it’s been great sharing this ride with you for the past two years, and you’re 100% right! I wouldn’t have done it without your thread as I would have felt like I was letting you down with my target pledge (feels to me like a promise to you) even though I know it’s not the case. 
    I hope you had a lovely Xmas and birthday with your man 

    Looking forward to our third year 😊
