  • What an excellent update for week 1!  Great work so far guys...

    I'm adding weeks 1 and 52 today as on Wednesday I am off on holiday for a week and will miss next Monday.  This holiday was financed by my envelopes from 2024 :D 

    I should be able to keep the tracker and thread updated whilst I am away though.  I am aiming to do alternate highest and lowest this year, we will see how that compares to last year which was totally random. I still have my chart to colour in though.
