to all the helpful people on this site - I may not post much, but often spend my lunch hour reading threads and gleening information.
It was such information that gave me the courage to address my endowment shortfall, and turned part of my mortgage into a repayment, it was a struggle espcially when hubby was made redundant - but at 6.00 am this morning I paid off my mortgage (in tears - i know really sad but I just go so emotional) and I was relieved to find that my payouts were just £197 down on what was needed to settle the final payment.
