    For every £500 I overpay, I reduce my interest by 6p a day... Yep that's how exciting my life is at the moment:rotfl::rotfl:
    I hope you're sitting down El. Glad I was when I read it :D. I have been known to increase the decimal places on my spreadsheet to see if it actually is 14p a day interest, or actually 13.869923p :rotfl:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    I just can't get the hang of spread sheets, however today in the post arrived my accounts book, it's all been written up and ready to go :)

    It did work out we are 0.06424 pence per day, thought I would round it down to the 6p, I'm sure if I could do spreadsheets it would've been the 0.06424 though :)
