    Hello all - hope you've all had a good week.

    Great to see your plans for this little nest egg. I plan to continue next year if possible, as it's such an easy way to save.

    Another fiver into the pot today bringing my total to £150.88. Thank you for all your updates - page 1 has been updated to here.

    I'm going away on Sunday-Thursday hiking with my DSis. It's very impromptu but I've been stood down from work this week and next week, so wanted to make the most of my time off. I will be back late Thursday night so FF update should happen as usual albeit probably Friday afternoon!

    Have a good week all.

    Coxy xx

    Hi everyone,

    Apologies for not updating on Friday as usual - I was buried under a mountain of washing from my last minute trip away. I did however transfer my latest fiver as the habit is well and truly there.

    Thank you for all your new totals - page 1 has been updated. I too received a little interest so my total is now £156.21 🤗

    Have a good week!
