    Hi all! I haven't been on here for ages. Sorry for my absence. I've just crossed the £4000 mark for my Emergency Fund which is a third of my £12000 target. Two more years (but hopefully sooner) and we can start the focused intensity on paying off the mortgage early.

    Another small milestone for me...my Christmas savings for 2016 is just over £250. Saving £2 a day takes away all the stress worrying how we will pay for everything;)

    I am now down into 3 figures, £317 to be more precise. I still have, as yet, an unkown amount of interest and fees to pay back to my folks, but to get the capital borrowed down this close to zero is a good feeling.

    Just catching up on the milestones people have passed. Well done all!

    Mine was dipping under the £1500 mark last month although I'm pushing to get down to £1400 before my next payment Via PADs as much as I can.

    Finally sold my car yesterday, which means I have now cleared all the capital I borrowed. Just the interest to go now which I have had a guesstimate at and updated my sig.
