    A little more to add, every little helps. Now at 48%, hoping to make 50% by the end of May which will keep me on target :)
    Happy Bank holiday weekend - hopefully we will all see some sun.

    I've got sunshine in Cornwall, but it's cold and quite windy. At least it's dry (well, it is at the moment).

    This week’s total helped by another contribution to the M&S gift card, no idea why I’m still getting these but not complaining ;)
