Still no statement but made an overpayment. Our term has reduced. Whoop. Whoop. If we only manage a 200 pound overpayment for the rest of the term we will have 23 years left. We have been making bigger payments monthly so fingers crossed. New students are
Lovely. They are so polite and it is a pleasure having them. Much easier then last time. Got the weekly payment today. When I checked the current account there was more in there then I thought. Once we get back from holiday I will reevaluate how much rainy day fund we need.

You're making good progress! Any overpayment you can make will help a lot as they all add up and will save you a fortune in interest charges. Quite jealous of your allotment too!Sealed Pot Challenge:

I love it but it can be hard work. My husband and I did 3 hours today and I ache. It is fab tho. We were eating rasberries as we worked and there are also beans and rubarb. I wish we could have done it sooner.Mortgage free Start amount feb 2014 227000. Current amount nov 2014 217000.

I think we have currently saved 7000 pounds in interest. It is crazy. We pay over £20 pounds a day
. Not for long tho. Hopefully. The sun is out again and I am going to go have a cup of coffee in the garden.

Made it back to the allotment with mfw. Can see we have been there and it is looking lots better. We had potatoes from there with our tea. Went to the meat man at the market just as he was getting ready to leave so got some real bargains.Mortgage free Start amount feb 2014 227000. Current amount nov 2014 217000.
