    There's half a fish left and loads of chips. Feeling stuffed in that 'I feel sick..... wonder if there's any chocolate' way :o.

    Did something really stupid last night - worked out how many months it would knock off if I stopped paying into SIPP :o. Must be strong and sensible :cool:.

    Also looked at spreadsheets for next step.I will be paying a little more than I had thought in December and that was enough to knock a month off overall end date for me paying back Mr GG :T. However, as I will be paying £1,250 a month that won't be happening often :(.

    As of Monday the balance of mortgage #2 will be 30.7k with a projected end date of June 26. Even offset with savings it has an end date of Sept 23. How rude. It needs to learn its place, which hopefully is ........... oh. Missing columns on spreadsheets, will be back ;).

    28/2/14 :D. Crikey. That's not far away, is it :T. Except realistically it won't be that as that is assuming all payments I make to Mr GG debt are actually mortgage OP's whereas at the mo they are going into the btl house fund :(. Still, not bad :).
