It's a very good quote isn't it @LittleMissDetermined? I often feel like I achieve nothing, so thinking of it differently definitely helps.
@Aimingforthegoodlife that is a very impressive PAD and it's good that you're able to save the additional income instead of just spending it all (like I would have done back in the day 😂).

Sometimes travelling to far flung or exotic places may not be in our financial plans for the foreseeable future, but travel doesn't always have to involve a lot of distance.

That's amazing, and well done on saving it. We were in the same situation at the end of last work but foolishly thought the work would keep coming, it didn't . It was a learning curve, but one we needed I think! Save while the going is goodAimingforthegoodlife said:@Shellyjanefreeman thank you, DH has got a lot of self employed work.

It is lovely to see this money coming in, makes a huge difference as last year the work was rubbish!
