Hey guys
Hope you're all keeping well.
I've updated totals and allocated numbers.
I work in a SEN school for secondary age students, we've been training this week to do testing for Covid, interesting and scary in equal measures.
I'm shattered and it's only Tuesday!

Thank you kdalwayskint. Its been a very strange start to the new year. I'm so glad I have these challenges to provide some distraction.
No.5 reporting in with a new total of £51 so far - I'm determined to save more this year - focussing on Xmas'21 and hoping it will be very different to 2020.
