#64 sheepishly reporting in.
I've not been keeping up to date here but I have overpaid by £560.33 this year. Not quite my target of £1000 but a dent nonetheless. I'm going to keep trying with a smaller annual target I think.Not buying unnecessary toiletries 2024 26/53 UU, 25 IN0 -

Very late report for December, some major spending got in the way. Total OP for December = £58.51.
Now to take a look at 2020, I'm really hoping those last few payments will happen before the next financial year so the mortgage will be paid off before DH retires!
Thanks everyone for the support and camaraderie over 2019. This thread has been a great incentive.
