Spreadsheet updated - i'm running the Brighton marathon tomorrow, so a nice break from munching pasta and being nervous

kirstypark - please could you confirm your numbers, earlier you said "we made a total payment today of £754.87 to our mortgage" but then " i managed to find £15 to overpay today, so thats a total of £746.01" - is it not £769.87?
Bluefire and sarahevie1- welcome both to the challenge, i've added you to the spreadsheet0 -
good luck on your marathon tomorrow.

Am doing really badly with my ops, to be honest, the !!!! has hit the fan again, and I'm struggling to make regular payments, I have managed to overpay by €23 for feb, and €12 for Mar (big whoop, not!) but seriously doubt I'll be able to achieve what I'd envisaged at start of year. What a difference a couple of months make
Sorry, good luck lomcevak!!
