Hi,
#003 declaring £500 for May.ThanksKev4 -
#33 checking in for a belated April total. The overtime paid off, plus I have upped my contribution to the early retirement pot in April. Total to declare for April of £606.33.May is looking less good, as I can't find any overtime shifts I can do so it's only what I can find from my regular earnings. Fingers crossed something comes up.Save £12k in 2025 #33 £2531.77/£5000 (If this carries on I might have to up my target!)

Hoping to have a lodger soon, although slim pickings around here, but need something to keep the savings level up with all the seemingly endless cost increases
Hope everyone is doing ok
