Thanks @Four_Seasons @Grogged @MovingForwards
We've been paying off around 55-60% of net income so challenging but doable as our interest only mortgage payment is so low...
In other news my belated Mother's Day present arrived from my son today - a personalised Journal with my initials and the words 'Beautiful Chaos' on the front. It's very pretty. He gets me...

Had an okay day today. Just caught up on Rich H Poor H. It's amazing to hear stories where in like 6 years people have turned their lives around. I think my next focus has to be my weight which has been up and down in lockdown. The last couple of weeks I've lost 4lbs having hit my worst ever weight - but what I need is sustained weight loss. Still working out how to change that aspect of my life. Getting control of £ gives me hope I can do the same with food.
Have a good weekend all.Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality
