    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    :hello: Yeah... :j Another person not able to Op loads - me too! :p I've managed to OP ~£30 in the last month. Essentially whatever I "earn" by surveys / vouchers / interest / quidco / TCB etc gets split 50:50 between money I can spend on things I can't otherwise afford and my mortgage. I'm finding it very motivating! :D My last OP was 29p... :rotfl:

    Good luck with your under £97.5k challenge...
    Mortgage free as of 12/08/20!
