Finally set up my standing order

After months of procrastination, I've finally set up my standing order for £50 per month to overpay on the mortgage. I'm starting with a small amount and will hopefully be able to increase the amount once I get back to work (on maternity leave at the mo).
Finally made that first step - woohoo :j

Well Done You
The magical point is when the monthly interest is less than the capital paid !!
Then you can really see it starting to tumble
Good luck and stick with it
