My target for 2018 is a rather optimistic one of £40,000 - probably won't get near but I'm giving it a go.
Thanks for doing this again for us all - happy new year :beer:

Hi, I'd like to join this year please! I think the best number for me to base this on is reducing my offset mortgage balance - so counting offset savings, repayments and overpayments. So my goal for 2018 is to reduce this balance by £30,000 this year.
Thank you!0 -

I don't mind if I keep my number (MFW #121) or changeit - whatever is easier
