I'm guessing you've saved the money from your last Three conservatory roof cleans? :P

Yes and no. To keep the peace i've just booked a two week holiday in the sun (4 weeks time). In all fairness I could do with a break.

Mine has been demolished over last few weeks, had to invest in training staff and buying equipment to run this roof clean, but will replace funds as we have 2 of them to do, with another 2 already in the water pipe for next year

Don't need a slush find if your hard core like me and work through all weather. :)

I do have 6 months money stashed away though just in case.

£500 should do it. All I need is beans on toast.

For Christmas I did the 52 week challenge. Doing in next year. Such a good way to save.

One year I did it with £20 note a week , didn't work .
Got to march with about £200 saved up and spent it on van tax .

Putting £1's And  £2's coins away means you don't grab £50 and spend them .

Averaging £10 plus away put by soon adds up .
Our lass did put a few in through the year , but ended up taking the lot ........lol
