    Hi @kdalwayskint hope you are feeling better now.

    I'd like to change my target to £240 if that's okay?

    I've had to reprioritise a few things, so I'm going for £20 a month.

    If that's okay I can report, I'm on the new target and already looking forward to spending it in December :smiley:

    #10 checking in with £273

    It's sounding like we may have some extra family members staying with us for six weeks between December and January so I might need to increase my target amount.  I hope you are feeling between @k@kdalwayskint and that everyone is doing well.

    Hi everyone

    Thank you for checking in on me, I'm better, was testing positive for 15 days 😑

    Been busy since my last check in, I've made a bag and a dress, I've been studying and doing well on my course, very pleased with how that's going. 

    Also, not very MSE but I'm organising a surprise trip to Bath for hubby's 50th birthday. So far booked accommodation and hop on hop off tour, next going to book the Roman Baths and a couple of other places I've been looking at. 

    I hope everyone is keeping well?

    I will add in totals and I think I saw 1 or 2 requests to join so I'll allocate numbers.

    😊
