    #36 - £1,500 for August. :)

    Took our mortgage balance down to £213,000.16. Was very tempted to OP another 16p. But didn't bother as our standard repayment goes out on the 1st anyway. :D
  • Is it too late to join up - I have just got my mortgage and want to pay it down fast. Hoping to over pay by £2000 by December. :)

    'Am I allowed to admit to being jealous?'

    Yes you are :)

    Just as I was jealous of everyone reaching mortgage freedom before me.

    Best of luck, keep us up to date with how you're doing!
