    #87 Popping in to report my first overpayment for 2021. 
    Just from Tilly tidies and exbay sales I have overpaid £340.
    I have put another amount away from not having to pay the water and council tax this month. I am hanging onto some in case my brother needs help as the lockdown continues.
    Grand Total is £340/£17500  :smiley:
