  • Need to catch up on this thread. Been distracted the last couple of weeks.
    Nevertheless a little tidgy OP today of £30.

    The Halifax website is under maintenance at the mo so haven't got a 100% updated spreadsheet yet so fingers crossed there'll be a bigger OP which can be squeezed out

    Thanks Lomcevak, massive good luck wishes for you doing the Brighton run. Hopeful for good weather for you and your marathon compadres

    Good luck! It's my fourth Brighton marathon, so I know what i'm in for, but if you've got any idea how to make that damn power station a bit closer because I suffered horribly on the 'road to hell' last year... :D

    No 67 reporting in for March and April at £1,000 in total (so £500 per month).

    Wow, having just read through a few pages I am so impressed by you all! Really helping to motivate me to increase my overpayments. It's interesting as when I thought about starting this in January, £500 per month seemed too much. However, I've hardly noticed it in terms of cash, and receiving the revised statements makes me smile.

    And good luck with the Brighton marathon Lomcevak!

  • Hi everyone,

    £450 overpayment made yesterday along with the Trelfa Twist. Bit of an emotional rollercoaster the last month or so as I have found out that hubby and I are expecting a little Trelfa in November (hopefully we can still overpay until the end of this year but may not be able to join in next year's challenge - we are currently reevaluating our finances). Secondly my grandfather passed away on Easter Sunday morning so currently dealing with that.

  • Hi Rachel, congrats on the baby news.. that's lovely and also sorry to hear about your grandfather. x
