Well I gained £16 as I was sorting our and found a really old savings account I forgot I had. Closed it. Got £16. But as it was already mine I dont think I'll include it in my 'Make' amount

@ MoonChild91 - It all adds up and balances out nicely in the end, so don't give yourself a hard time. Enjoy the challenge and see how far you get, rather than worrying or putting yourself under unnecessary duress about not making £2025 in 2025
