Number 5 reporting £256 OP for March. (Wish I had some more pennies to throw at it, but making this a regular OP is better than nothing!)
Thanks lomcevak for making this thread possible (as a non spreadsheet type person I love seeing your spreadsheet with it all there in black and white!)Mortgage free 04/03/2025. Thanks to this site and lots of overpayments bit by bit.

No128 with March o/p of £550. Unfortunately couldn't make a February payment due to two holidays. I am also getting a new bathroom this month so things are really tight. But something is still making me want to get back on target with o/p which will take me the rest of the year probably.
Good to see everyone doing well it really is an inspiration.:beer:0 -

no 15 481 from normal monthly DD plus £1000 over payment total for March £1481
Should be able to squeeze another £1000 at the beginning of April but going away over Easter so probably nothing extra in May. I am amazed how by keeping an eye on the pennies I am able to find abit more for the mortgage.
