    Hello all,

    Here is my Friday update. This week my random number picker gave me:
    13, 157, 60, 59, 38, 311 and 206 = 844 so £8.44 going into the pot

    #45 new total is £183.16 :)

    I am away for 10 days hiking from tomorrow so no update next week, but will do 2 week's worth on 21 April.
    Thanks as ever to @enthusiasticsaver for running this challenge despite VM woes and actually having a life!!

    Thanks Coxy.  Where are you hiking?  I did 10 miles yesterday on the SW  coast path and it was glorious and sunny.
