I think sometimes a break from the surveys is what you need, i think a few of us do it as at times i think they get a bit time consuming and mind numbing but if it helps clear that mortgage quicker it has got to be worth it.June 2025 - part 1 - £19,145 part 2 - £21,973 Total - £41,118 29 months to go!0

I have breaks from surveys every so often. Its different for me tho as I am a single parent and can do them in the evening when the kids are in bed and I am watching tv but sometimes it was taking a long time and I wasnt getting much sleep spending a lot of time on the lappy
I decided to cut down and only do a few sites and to have a week away from them every 4 or 5 weeks. Then when I feel refreshed get back into it

I've accepted a new job in a local shop.
It isn't going to make me rich, but i'll only be working sat mornings 9-1 and Wed evenings 5-9 I'll be earning £221 a month, so it all helps.
Will obviously be flinging it all towards the mortgage:jOPs so far £42,139
