    I am reporting early this week as I am off on a Ramblers walking break in North Devon and Exmoor next week and my monthly coastal walk in Cornwall is also this weekend so getting ready for those hikes tomorrow along with celebrating DHs birthday. I won't get a chance to get on my laptop much over the  next week. 

    Another £12 moved over to  my Starling space for October making a total of £24 so far. 

    I have knocked off the following numbers this week. Even better Starling have increased interest rates from 0.05% to 3.95%. 

    £2.92
    £2.93
    £3.07
    £3.08

    44 numbers left to cross off and 11 weeks so I am sticking with 4 numbers a week now. Hope everyone else is doing ok.

    267, 42, 142, 230, 182, 231 and 226 = 1320  so £13.20 going into the pot.

    #45 new total is £493.22

    Many thanks to @enthusiasticsaver for keeping us on track and hope you enjoy the walking  :)
