  • Hi

    Just logged on for the 1st time in a while (thought you had changed your diary name :eek: and were aiming to pay your mortgage off next year :j)

    I wish! Even with this year's ramp-up in OPs I don't think we could manage that much.
  • I'm back in...

    Even though net mortgage will go UP :mad: (buying a "forever" home) would like to make overpayments of £20k + the £4k I fell short by this year.

    Now to figure out "how" to do it :)
  • Hi Hiddenshadow
