    I have just added my own modest efforts this month to the spreadsheet. It includes £226.50 from a Christmas Shopping event where I was selling some honey (and fudge). This is normally my best month for dividends so my total is boosted to £800.91 for November and the spreadsheet is updated to here

    #2 declaring £731 for November.

    Finally a positive month (yay!) but unfortunately just a technicality as I was able to defer paying some renovation invoices until December (ie today!). Next month will almost certainly be a zero month, with Christmas and all!

    Happy saving everyone and thank you all for the kind words @Suffolk_lass @Dizzycap

    Ooh, homemade honey at Christmas fair sounds lovely! Have you been doing that for a while?
