        #13 sending £5 to Piggy Bank.     £45, which I am fully aware would be zero in there if not for this challenge, so thank you @Coxy11 for setting this up :)

            Hi all,

            Didn't manage to get on here yesterday, so another £5 transferred this morning. Well done to all those keeping up with the weekly or monthly transfers. We will be glad of this pot at the end of 2025  :)

            Totals updated on page 1, post 2. If there's anything amiss please do let me know.
