    Just wanted to thank Julicorn and everybody for inspiring me to keep on track. I’m sure I would have spent money and lost focus by now if it wasn’t for this! :)

    Just wanted to say that the spreadsheet is all up to date now, and that in the time I was away, your overpayments (both big AND small!) have exceeded £100,000 for February alone! Absolutely fantastic progress everyone, well done! :j

    Wow that’s an impressive amount, I think we should all have a smug face moment and congratulate ourselves :T

    No 40 with an additional OP of £100.98

    Thanks Juliecorn, apologies for the extra work. No more OPs this month! x

    Hi! Noodle99 here (no. 41)! I don't know if this is an acceptable way of doing it, but it's the best way for me for now. I'm popping my overpayment money into a savings account until I can put it into the mortgage. The amount I popped in in January was £29.79 and February's has been £174.95. I'm aiming for a total of £1000 this year. Thanks!
