Should we pay off our mortgage? (further thoughts)

A while ago we posted a request for advice re our 67K mortgage. Here are the details of our endowments (no longer tied to the morgage). Together with savings we could (just) clear the mortgage, but don't know if we would be wiser to wait until the endowments mature in 5 years time. The mortgage has 13 years to run.

The endowments are outlined below. Advice please.
