So today has been one tip run, sort of of the bikes in the garage. DD can move up to my bike so her old one and DHs need to go.Solicitors instructed, surveys booked and paid for and a ton of forms completed online.Time for a cuppa I think…DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

Wow, it's really happening, isn't it! How far are you moving? It sounds a short distance, which is helpful.2023: the year I get to buy a car4

it really really isn’t that far 15 miles I think… but it cuts down our travelling time on a weekly basis, so less wear and tear on the car, less petrol, less life spent in the car etc.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

Edging towards payout on 1poll. It sure is quicker on there since they changed it.Requested some cashback from TcB and just waiting for that to hit the account.Money earned so far is £29.52 in May.Longer term (which I can’t think about for fear of jinxing the house move) I need to think about what I do with my MSE time and focusDFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

Ooh, I'm on £24.09 on One Poll - I'll race you to payout! Very exciting to think about big "life after mortgage" questions 😀 Sadly, I've plotted out exactly where all my money will be going for several years to come and none of it is very fun (in the short term anyway)!Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)
Cleared 🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️!!! In 5 years, 1 month and 29 days
Total amount repaid: £72,307.03. £1.10 repaid for every £1.00 borrowed
Finally earning interest instead of paying it!!!5 -
Excellent on the 15 miles ... I think commuting as a thing is on a downtrend right now, hopefully permanently.2023: the year I get to buy a car4
