    Brizzle,
    Please put an update form in for the last chart (10) either for todays balance or what it was on the chart date, your choice, then you are ready for chart 11 in September.

    Sammy,
    Congratulations. Please can you submit a form update so that its recorded in case FB picks back up. Thanks
    Edit Sammy you're on the sheet as build up savings to £25k rather than pay off a mortgage, i'm confused :S

    Congrats to all who have met their target, i'm currently looking to see what comes to the market to find something better suited for me now & probably increase the mortgage upwards.

    Brizzle I thought you were going to do a chart 10 update? You put it through as chart 11 which is now coming up, can you let me know if you're going to put another one through for chart 11 (12th Sept), haven't done anything with your 22/8 submission yet x

    Everyone else....
    Chart 11 is now here!! after this its the final one to see how everyone got on!

    Updates please!!
