    Thank you @Suffolk_lass and @1stTimer. I don’t think I said my target for 2026 would be, I’m aiming for £18,000 for 2026

    My December saving as I’ve been paid early is £1800, I’m going to see if I can pull together the other £600 to reach £20,000 by the 31st Dec. So fingers crossed I’ll be back.
