  • Hi @slowlyfading, can I reduce my target to £6000 please? My work has reduced my hours to part time so £12,000 is quite ambitious. Thanks

    Hello SF, I’d love to join this year please... I took part a few years ago, but life got in the way a little.

    I’ve been lurking on this thread since then, and largely thanks to your inspiration managed to save enough for a deposit on a little flat, so my next goal is to squirrel away enough to upgrade to a house (I dream of having an upstairs and a garden!). 

    Could you put me down for 12k in 2021 please? I’m trying to turn enforced frugality into something positive for the future.

    Thanks for running this again!
