    Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.

    There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies

    Mel added an extra £10 by accident so it seems, then you posted late with the old but corrected amount :)

    Thanks DarkConvict - this is really helpful.

    And look at that total - even with 10 contributors we've managed nearly 100K. At peak times there are about 160 DFWs on this site so imagine what the 2009 total could look like if everyone posted!!!

    And, as coookiewoookie says - this is pretty inspiring stuff for newbies, particularly those who might be joining after a way to expensive Christmas. Let's keep this one going!!

    Are we allowed to add what we've paid off on our mortgages? (If we are I've paid £7154.41 this year)

    This is overpayments not my normal mortgage payments.
