  • WTG mummytummy - thats a good chunk each month to overpay where its been nothing before that. You may find it becomes a slight obsession!!!!!!!!!

    Well I didn't make my target for June, but I did put away a good sized chunk. Got a good start to this month so hoping it carries on. At the moment I think I can get it over £600 again for this July, but ambition is over the seven again, will have to do a trawl through the cupboards and loft and all the online surveys I can!!

    Woohoo, down another number, just got my mortgage statement, I'm £1,040 less on my mortgage (includes overpayment, monthly payment and interest), I managed to squeeze a bit more in the very end of June the 30th!!)so have gone from 81k to 80k, desperately hoping to be in the 70's in august!! I feel pleased on one hand but still a bit anxious on the other that I owe 80K!!!
