    Thanks for posting his @julicorn - please could I have a target of £1,200 for 2024? Happy to move to a smaller number or stick with 61 - whatever works.
    I've kept you at #61 for now, but I reckon lower numbers will free up beginning of January so if you'd like a lower one then just let me know. Same for you @FlacosFloozie :)

    Happy New Year everyone! @julicorn - please feel free to move me up to fill the lower numbers, but as it stands #61 reporting an £84 overpayment for Jan 2024.
