No 68. Accitdentally OPd £100 this morning
I meant to transfer it from our household account to my account as I think I am going to struggle money wise this month but hit the mortgage button as I am so used to that! So December's total is sitting at £106.95. I probably won't be able to OP much more than this until the end of the month so will be short of my target but seeing as I have been playing catch up since October I don't think I have done too badly.

Hi, Spiggle :j
Nr: 17 here, Have reached my goal of £6K by xmas with an OP of £335.40 (on top of the op/mortgage at beginning of month of £1032.69). Will you be doing another MFW for 2013?. Love to join, the 3 yr pay all your mortgage off, is a bit to much for me to aim for. Thanks for keeping me up to date, Jo.Mortgage: Aug 12 £114,984.74 - Jun 14 £94000.00 = Total Payments £20984.74

I'm number 59.
Hasn't gone great this year - I've kept up with my regular monthly overpayments of £150, but didn't make the extras I was planning. So I've overpaid a total of £1800 - well short of my £3000 target.
I've got an inheritance of £1000 on its way to me, however, so I may still make the target.
Unfortunately I've also got a bill for damp-proofing my house on its way to me, though my emergency fund is pretty healthy, so might use that to pay the bill.0 -
Hello Beckyyy here, my report for November is a very small £25.26. I've had to use the money we would have been OPing for other things which make more financial sense at the moment, but will hopefully be able to pick up on some larger OPs in the new year. I won't meet my £3000 target, but will only be a few hundred off.0

I can take a hint.:)
Spiggle's busy at the moment so has asked me to launch the 2013 MFW. Along with a shiny new chart.
Not sure if Spiggle will be taking over or helping out in the future but for now you're stuck with me
If anyone would like to keep their 2012 MFW number, or would like a specific number please let me know. Otherwise it's first come, first served.
Any requests for the 2013 challenge please use the new update form or post on the 2013 thread0
