Just sat here with a cuppa watching the rain falling and I've realised that with February's payments in the tin, I'm 1/4 of the way to the end. Going quickly isn't it? Right, back to counting raindrops 😂

Hello, everyone on this challenge.
I would like to join, if that's OK?
My starting total is £125 which lve been stashing in a tin since early January but now decided to deposit into the local building society.
My plan is to deposit monthy.
Good luck.

Hi Bob, good to have you onboard. You are #3 this year. Looks like you are already well on your way to a nice total for the end of the year.
We look forward to hearing about how your total is increasing over the coming months

Just had a look on my calendar and I'm up to £135 in each of my two pots so, that's £270 already. Soon adds up. I need to finish off April (only up to 14th) and then complete May this week. I always start my challenge with December as it can be a very expensive month - just how I like to work things.
Happy potting everyone 😀

Lovely to have you on board Bob2000. Such a good feeling to be saving some money - instead of spending it 😂
