Paid off a loan!!!!Thank you all

Hi everyone,
Just having a celebratory cup of tea and ginger snap!
After 7 years I have paid off my natwest loan today (consolidated an initially small loan twice.....), early having overpaid and whilst on maternity leave - i would never have thought it possible, and it's only because of this site and all the wisdom and advice of people on it that it is.
I am now loan free!!!!! Next target the credit cards - here I come! Finally feel i'm making progress.

Thank you, thank you, thank you
