Investing spare money

Options
Ok on the short I have some spare money every month

Averaging from £200 - £600

I have no debts
I all ready have my isa filled for this year
I all ready dabble in shares every month so want to try some thing else
I all ready buy premium bonds most month

I am unable to buy property due to being self employed for less than 2 years


Any one got any ideas? For short term and long term?

    Few ideas to think about in no particular order:
    - you'll get another year's isa allowance in just over 6 weeks time
    - overpay mortgage, if you have one
    - pension
    - regular savings account
