    You'll get there tomorrow Linz and then we can race to the next £40 :D

    Cath it has been very slow on OP for me today as well, but thankfully I managed to log in.

    I got £1.50 in the end today. It was slow, but i persisted. I am only at £3, so you can try and beat me too, and i will try and catch you again on DY.

    Michelle I was ahead of you on OP a couple if weeks ago and then you sped ahead and won that race. I don't know how you do it.

    I was owed £3.50 in referral bonuses, and i pestered and pestered till they paid me. Nothing superhuman - honest. :D

    So another DY review written this morning, not sure if I'll make my target of 8th July for payout or not. Currently sitting at around £25.50.

    Four items ending on Ebay today, two of which have bids, not large amounts but still helps the OP pot and reduces the clutter. I need to find £21 to make my next target for OPing and currently have £3 sitting in paypal so achieveable by the end of the month I think.


    My targets for the mortgage work out like this

    - round up to nearest £100 (this is currently £28.51)
    - round down to the nearest £100 on mortgage balance
    - OP enough to knock a month off the term.

    These are all very achieveable targets as the highest one would be just over £200 to knock a month off. If I can do that each month I'll be super happy.

    Yay well done Linz, let's hope they don't take too long to pay out.

    Three out of the four eBay items sold which all helps to declutter the house.
