    In case you don't pop into my diary...

    I'm done too - last month to be exact. Been away for a few days and sprung the news on Mrs Bliss:

    Thanks everyone for support and inspiration.

    While I'm here, I've been so focused on the final straight and finishing line that I forgot to publish Chart 12.

    I'll do that this week.

    Apologies again folks - not very often you're mortgage free - been distracting me!

    Wow, 2 of you in a few days! Well done to you.
    FB, how wonderful that you were able to surprise your wife like that!
    Interestingly enough, DH and I now have more in savings than we owe on the mortgage (until we get the work done to our bathroom and what not but we're still waiting for the quote so it'll be a while yet).
    So technically, we could pay the mortgage off tomorrow if we wanted to. How lovely :D
