    Well done beanie! You seem to like those same-digit numbers :D (Btw, those are called 'schnaps number' or 'booze number' in German, because when you're drunk you tend to see double :rotfl: )

    Hi Pawlala

    #169 reporting my August payment of £1,684.92 made up of capital reduction from monthly payment and an overpayment. Total to date of £10,344.62/£12,000. This will be my only overpayment this month as I've pinched some from my small contingency fund as I should get a work bonus next month to top back up.

    Good luck everyone for August overpayments :D
