  • Read your lovely news on another thread... How wonderful. All the very best to you,

    Squirrel
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D

    Thanks Squirrel :D ...I'm holding off chatting about it here just in case. I can always avoid the other thread...but not really this one. Not sure if that makes sense, but it does in my head.

    Just sorted my meter readings (with my eyes closed when I pressed submit - it's been a while). Turns out, I'm still £124 in credit despite the fact they have reduced my DD just before christmas. I don't want to count my chickens but I could be in for another reduction!! :)

    This is despite the fact I had the heating on almost constant when I was off work ill for two weeks in January. :D
