Beat my target with a December OP of £750. I've also took a month off the mortgage term with that £750. Now looking at August 2013 instead of September 2013 to complete!
May post another update on or near 31st December, as I'm aiming for a year end mortgage balance of £20,750, so I'll need to make a further OP of a fiver or so - my OCD kicking in there...
Do I still need to update via google docs?
