    I’ve added bank interest, 50p found in a vending machine, £1.30 from Curious Cat, that add up to around £63, also £27 earlier after asking a relative for a contribution to a payment. And a penny on the street!

    added another £5.60 today, part of a £7.50 voucher I was given and spent by an airline after a cancelled flight, cost of a cake and drink of water at an airport! They also gave us a stay in hotel, taxi and ferry instead of the flight - not counting any of that! Can’t claim cost of flight back as cancelled due to bad weather. 😞

    ending the month on £522.57 which is way more than I expected.
