    I can't wait to be in that enviable position in the next 3-4 years (hopefully).

    Salsa - massive congratulations. Three months to start shouting from the rooftops though!? I've heard a few folk say that having no mortgage was a wee bit anti-climactic. I hope starting to treat yourself and noticing the tangible bits and pieces you can do and buy gets you into the swing of mortgage-free delerium!!

    Fluffysox - congratulations on both the pay rise and, more importantly, the pregnancy. The very best of luck to you and I hope your OH gets a job soon. Things do seem to be picking up a bit on the job market but I'm sure the droves of public sector people who are anticipating flooding the market in the next year will take care of any renewed optimism I have!!

    Cheers,

    Billy

  • Another £50 just paid onto mortgage. Another £50 put away for December trip to Sydney :)

    Annoyingly I feel bad about not paying that £50 onto the mortgage as well :( Sure it will pass though!

    I've been thinking about this myself. I have the feeling a weekend of nice food and alcohol will be coming my way! I also have the Friday - Monday off so 4 day weekend.

    Hi, haven't updated for a while. It's been a funny year. Husband had 10% pay cut for much of the year, but now has a new job with a bit of a pay rise :j. We've also just switched mortgages to a lower rate so I should now be able to start chipping away again.
  • Oops, No 20 here with a late September update!:o

    £373.32 paid in bring total to date to £4219.84.

    Some essential work on house has meant the offset has taken a bashing so am quite please that anything got paid off!

    Just got to manage £800 out of the next 3 months....hmmm...a rabbit out of a hat might be more realistic!!!:D

    Been reading the excellent progress made by others, well done! :T
