Found you! Waves & subscribes.

You are making the most fantastic start with all this. I reckon you will blast through your targets. Really look forward to reading about all your successes!

I bought a book about 7 years ago-pay off your mortgage in two years. Watched the series too. We didn't even have a mortgage at that time. :rotfl:
I read the book and popped it in a cupboard and forgot about it.
I dug it out last night. Started reading it again...overslept today.
oops...very interesting book.

Made a tablet today-recipe courtesey of Elantan-thank you.
I used caramel condensed milk instead of ordinary condensed and I omitted the vanilla essence-it's very sickly but lovely.
I got fed up of seeing all the loose change darling Mr tc leaves lying around, so I tidied all £1.37 of it into my little piggy bank along with some change out of my coat pocket.. May transfer it into my second savings account when the little piggy is full.
Managed to pay another £10 into savings today
Paid final £10 of the month into mortgage

Hi there,

Wow, you are an inspiration! Just a thought. If you are keeping your charity shop stuff in the car boot it will burn a bit more fuel, due to additional weight. would hate for you to be burning money by accident when you're doing so amazingly well :T

Took your advice and took charity shop stuff to charity shop today.
Just need to have another sort out.
How many times do people relist things before they give up on them and send them to charity please?

Hi TattyC

I just relist on ebay until they sell. If it's an item that will cost to list (ie over 99p) I wait till free listings weekends and eventually it sells.

Well done on the progress. Fantastic

I've got a couple of men's coats which I'm struggling with. They aren't a big enough brand to really stand out and 'cos I paid a bit much for them, I need to get as near their top price as I can. Have relisted them, but expect I will need to wait until someone does a carboot & send them to that. They look very nice, but think people need to actually see them....

Mortgage went out today-must sort out update for challenge.
paid an extra £10 to mortgage

Just updated sig-a 6th (16.66% I think) of the way to achieving my objective re. mortgage.
Going to need to get my rear in gear to achieve the other 5/6 as we only have 10 months left.

Not been as effective as I would like today -it was a long night last night and I've only had 3 hours sleep.
Got 10 more items posted.
Got half a dozen relists done.
Need to sleep.
Going for a nap.

Up and at it and ready for some food...
Going to raid the kitchen-fancy some mash for some reason.
Then I've got loads of work I need to do.
