    Please could someone check that the Google Docs links are working and accessible, thanks :)

    Grateful thanks to VoucherMan for sharing the spreadsheet for me to copy

    Spreadsheet all working fine for me on different devices. :) I had sent you the one used for 2014 as well.

    Do you want us to use the update form for OPs rather than post in the thread or does it not matter?
    MFW 2015 #41 = £20,515/£20,515
    MFW 2014 #41 = £26,100/£25,000
    MFW 2013 #41 = £10,000/£10,000

    Spreadsheet updated, welcome aboard Pocket9s and Niknak77, and PiggyBankShaker i've updated your target. And thanks for the people who checked the spreadsheet and form worked, first time i've really experimented with google docs so wasn't sure if I have the permissions correct. I assume nobody can edit it :D

    I don't mind - I had a PM from someone who preferred to update via a form rather than the thread, so thought i'd add it. I'll try and keep everything updated regardless of how the update is posted, but, as ever, i'll make mistakes so if i've got an update wrong just give me a nudge via the thread or PM and i'll fix it :)

    ... and as a little bit of fun, i've picked a number - first person to get an OP within a tenner of it wins a donation to a charity of their choice :D
  • Please may I join in, had our light bulb moment regarding the mortgage a couple of weeks ago...

    The mortgage currently stands at £207,838. Its interest only, DP and I are self employed, its on a SVR of 4.74%, there's 14 years left to go and we really don't want to have to sell the house to clear the mortgage.

    I'm aiming for overpayments of a minimum of £7838 in 2015.

  • HI Lomcevak Can I sign up for 3k as I've realised that will take me below the 100k mark then. I don't mind which number I have.
