    £500 OP sent to the mortgage (£70,200-so close to 69k bracket!)
    5% Reg saver matured and interest added - just shy of £100 :)
    Have moved the funds to my ISA
    1 brick coloured in
    1 month knocked off the term of the mortgage


    Lots of upcoming expenditure - Car, credit card etc
    Iv got a separate fund for this that I'm starting as my "spend fund". Hoping I can save this up in the next few months, so I don't have to dip into my emergency fund. I like the round figure of £35k, so would be annoyed if I had to use some.


    Results-
    Total mortgage OP - £30,500
    Total savings £35,000

    Total mortgage term reduction- 5yr 6 mth
    Total Mortgage OP £61,000
    Outstanding Mortgage £27,971
    Emergency Fund £62,100
    I AM NOW MORTGAGE NEUTRAL!!!! <<Sep-20>>

    Payday arrived Friday. All monies have been moved to various account ready for bills on the 1st. I paid off a big expense in cash and will use my 0% credit card for future spending instead.


    Happy my emergency fund didn't need to be touched. In fact I have managed to add £1,100 to it :)


    Looking forward to the 1st of the month to make my mortgage/OP
