Some of you are getting close to finishing this challenge already and it is just May. Well done.

I have paid in for the next 30 days #1 £40.65 making a total of £113.25 so broken the first hundred barrier. I think it may be getting more expensive from now on.

well done to you @enthusiasticsaver you are right about some of us potentially finishing early, but Summer may still bite us yet!

#9 checking in with an unusual amount of £84.02, its too balance my books so I have nice round number amounts moving forward.
