Yeay! Well done on the bids, pammy! And glad your boss got you lunch
- helps to make up a bit for his comments - grrr! (although frugal style living (without being excessive so that you can still have fun) is THE way to go, imo! Who wants to be tied to a debt for a lo-oonng time when a bit of careful planning & living will get rid of it?!
)

received my refund from BT as I have switched my landline so together with my GTM cheque I paid in £63.70 today
So have paid another £50 off my mortgage AND this has knocked another month off my EMFD, only 29 months left to shave off my target
now finish date is Nov 2021, (still seems a long way off!) will be below £79k when next payment comes out

Had a busy day with the kids today, went into town to bank and shopping and then we went to the park with our bats and balls. realised that the badminton rackets werent good for tennis bal so decided to have a look in the local charity shop and amazingly they had a slazenger bat for £2, so bought it and also saw some trainers and flipflops for DS2 too, so a good trip.
spent a good couple of hours in the park in the glorious sunshine and then came home and cut the lawn and spent an hour or so out there as well.
then we had a make over session (DD loves them) and now I am really shattered!!!MPs left feb '08 276- Dec 13 36 :T MB Jan 10 ~ £82,377 Dec 13 ~ £29987

)
Hope I get one but then will I become obsessed with that as well haha.MPs left feb '08 276- Dec 13 36 :T MB Jan 10 ~ £82,377 Dec 13 ~ £29987

This is a fantastic diary. It's amazing how much you have managed managed to have payout from non work activities. I joined loads of these things but I don't have the time and I have become increasingly frustrated in surveys that u start doing then don't qualify. I just do shopping scanning and think will hit the rest on the head.
Good luck I'm sure you will continue to be ahead of target!Mortgage November 2003 was £135k, but thanks to this website on 28/08/12 we became MORTGAGE FREE!
Now just over 2 years we have taken on the challenge again! )(starting £237k Nov 2014) Current mortgage £232,399.82, current overpayment total £1550, years remaining= 170 -
Hope we get one newgirly
gerbiljo, your figures are going down quite nicelyonly 34 months til you are MF? That would be fantastic, good luck with that. This year you have reduced your mortgage by over 11k, thats amazing (and I am soooooo jealous!)
Well we are having a pj day today, so it will be NSD no 10 :j
Hoping to get a few hours studying done today, managed just an hour yesterday.
Dooyoo is STILL only trickling the points to clear and I am still waiting for just 125 pts to clear now, its so frustrating, I have been waiting a few days now!MPs left feb '08 276- Dec 13 36 :T MB Jan 10 ~ £82,377 Dec 13 ~ £29987
