    I started Tilly Tidying at the end of August, £9.39 in first month and a few days. Phoned up to overpay that amount (have to do it on the phone so decided to put it in a saving account each day then going to phone and overpay at the start of each month).

    According to the MSE overpayment calculator that one off payment will save me £28 of interest so thanks for the inspiration to do this :T:T
    That's so good to hear - thanks for posting and good luck.

    Best wishes Tilly x

    Hi PWD, mortgage decreased by £118.5k in 23 months.

    Hope all is going well on the diet front - it's not easy dieting here at the moment as Mr T is experimenting in the kitchen :o

  • Hi, :think: a little news about our lodger.

    He's moving in, in just under two weeks - some of you may know him :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:








    Froggy is our new house guest :T. He's just said I should use this one :eek:

    He is house trained apparently - can cook, which is always good in this household.

    I vow not to extend the patio, nor fill the freezer :)

    Have a good night,
