Number 52 reporting:
I see my last reported total was £481 in January. However, I've started including interest in a S&S ISA which I wasn't including before, so please change my January total to £796.86.
February - £504.67
March - £2000.50
April - £1562.62
May - £517.34
June - £970.54
July - £367.49
I've well exceeded the target I set before I changed how I reported, and I might revise the target later on.
Thank you.
