Hi all,
I've made a couple of smaller OPs over the past few days, £25 and £75, thanks to some eBay sales, £co and renting my drive still. Takes me to £1,100 running total for July.
Thanks as always Lomcevak!

Sorry for not updating as regular as i should but all back on track now i hope for the remained of the year.
April - £1,000
May - £1,000
June - £1,000
and also July £1,000
Have received our mortgage statement this week which always makes me
and to see the amount still owed reducing always makes me want to :j because i know that if we didnt over pay we'd be even further off Mortgage Free.
Keep up the good work,0 -

Not sure we'll reach our target of £4500 this year, as we found out a couple of weeks ago that we are expecting our first baby in March! So the OPs might take a bit of a backseat to savings for when I'm on maternity leave, but we'll try & chip away slowly!MFW 2016 #32 £1574.66/£1500:j:j0

Congratulations Laura! Babies are expensive, so ive been told, so get yourself a nice buffer of savings built up. the mortgage will be still be there after maternity leave and you can work out what you are able to overpay then!Mortgage = [STRIKE]£113,495 (May 2009)[/STRIKE] £67462.74 Jun 20190 -

Awww! Congratulations!
We had our second child 9 weeks ago so currently on mat leave. My first I struggled to do any op's - I put away into savings when I did get anything spare. Second time around is a lot easier financially for us so making up for lost time
