    #38 with a final OP for March of £464.  That brings my total for March to £1856 and means that I have hit my £3000 target!!

    I wasn't sure that I would be able to put much away this year but things have turned out slightly different to what I was expecting.  Can I increase my target by £3000 to a new total of £6000 to see how I get on?

    Many thanks
    Yes absolutely, congratulations on smashing your target so early in the year :)

    Hi, #24 with April OP of £580.42.

    I think I might have met my target for the year? 
    We didn’t think we’d have quite as much to play with this year, could I change my target to £4000 please?
    Thanks 
    Yes absolutely, and same as for becksta, congratulations on meeting your target so early!
