    Please everyone excuse this very tardy spreadsheet update, it feels like I blinked and August has been and gone! Thank you so much for keeping up your overpayments, and I've especially enjoyed logging all those multi-month catch-up updates from earlier in the year as well. Never feel back for reporting late, as you can see I sometimes update the spreadsheet a little late too. 

    We're up to a fantastic £623,658.04 for the year already!

    I'll be off on holiday for a couple of weeks, escaping the English summer that's finally arrived to go to an equally hot Costa Rica :) 
  • Hi @julicorn a bit late but please can you put me at £3k for August, I'm #40. Many thanks!

    Number 38 here.  Just realised that I had a further £7.28 that should have been added to August's total please?

    That brings my total payment in August to £2743.04.

    Many thanks and apologies for the late update.
