    I can finally declare some more towards our total thanks to my wages and our monthly savings from subscriptions etc :)

    £1327.00 wages from my two jobs

    £ 608.00 subscription savings

    ________

    £1935.00

    Our total so far is now £11101.22/£38457 = 28.83% ❤️

    Creeping up but far too slowly for my liking :(
