    Some unexpected cash given to us today by FIL. £1500. Will pay in at the bank tomorrow. Might buy a few bits for new baby but most will go as an OP. Delighted as noticed this morning we are £1400 approx from the half way point on our mortgage. :j
    Will confirm how much went as OP when I know for sure so looks like June will be a bumper OP.
    2016 MFW OPd £2000, 2015 MFW OPd 3000 then bought new bigger house with bigger mortgage.
    MFW OPd 2014 £2000 2013 £9700 2012 £2848.39 2011 £2509.58 2010 £11000 2009 £112002008 £4939 :D

    Hi everyone and of course Voucherman,

    107, Matt getting a last OP in for May for £133. Surprised I've been able to OP as much in a tight month. Fingers crossed the next few months free up some extra spare cash (not sure where from yet!) and I can make a good dent into my new revised target!

    Keep going everyone, we are making such a difference to our future's!

    Mortgage- (Lightbulb moment, Sep 12) £95,571. (Jul13) £92,616 (Oct14) £88,224
