    Just popped in to do the same and realised that between loading the spreadsheet and updating from the thread (cooked and eat supper, then forgot until this morning), you had been in and updated. The lesson for me? even when my internet is running like a dog, refresh the screen! Fortunately only one to back out!

      unexpected payments this month with my laptop needing replaced and helping out my daughter with house repairs.
      should still hit target but still happy with the spare amount saved this year.

      Only a week left of October now.  I unfortunately had to make a withdrawal of £2000 this month to pay for flights and villa deposit for our holiday next year.  Still over target though.

      Hi @$17mma - it's a bit early for 2025. The best thing is to check the pennant symbol, top right, and that will add this thread to your bookmarked threads (link to that can be found to the right had side of this screen or under quick links if you are a phone user) - we will say in a post here before the end of December when we are opening up the bright, shiny, new 2025 thread and have set up the spreadsheet to track for everyone. I hope that helps.
