    I've started a draft spreadsheet, so I have moved up all the people who have posted to here. I've filled the top range of "holes" and I am down to some regulars who haven't commented yet.
    Does going into my third year make me a regular!?  I don't mind switching numbers, though I have enjoyed a nice round one this year!

    Whilst I've been pretty consistent (and just above target) the last couple of years, 2026 will see a big shake up to our finances as we're taking on some additional mortgage, which is totally manageable (touch wood) but may reduce my ability to foresee what we can save through the year against new budgets. It will be an interesting one to look back on this time next year for sure!
    I would very much like to move you up the list from #50 @t2rry. Just waiting to see if @geordiejon comes back (not updated last month)  or maybe @Hellesbelles updates but both have low numbers and if they are MIA either is a possibility
