    Hi Julicorn

    #67 reporting for August, a total OP of £295.44.

    I believe this takes me a little over my annual target of £2000

    If this is correct could I possibly amend my annual target to £3000

    Many Thanks, as always 
    MFW 2025 Op challenge = number 67
    £729/£2000

    Little and often, that's the key. IYKYK  
  • #35 with initial OP of £600 for September, should take me up to £9,122.40 for the year to date. Thanks Julicorn
