#62 +750 =3800 for me please @Dobbibill (thank you)  I dont think i will be back until December as i will now push literally every penny to paying off two bills ive now accumulated. Frustrating but going to remain focussed i knew this would be a marathon rather than sprint. Lets do this!

Hi All I have had to think differently about my savings, but all in all this year I now proudly have £900 in my new private pension, 1600 in my housing isa (enough to release the gov payout, )should I ever get to use it, and 200 in my cash e fund. 2700 all together. I  am super excited about this and I think that once I get to £6000 I will start to buy out my debt. All this is after dropping £700 on a computer around Christmas and £2000 for citizenship2 years ago. So have had big payouts and still saving. 
Keep at it, I am doing this on a part time salary and with 2 non dependent - dependent youngsters living at home(one at uni and one in a long term neuro rehab treatment).

That's amazing @triple_choc_chip about your mortgage fund and your EF being able to stretch for double the time 🤗.

Thanks 😊  It’s nine years since I repaid my debt and four years since I finished paying school fees.  I’m now able to save that money every month.  However, there is a legacy from the ‘horrid’ years in that I am five years from retirement with twelve years remaining on the mortgage.  So it’s all systems go to get that down as far as possible.

I think I’m #34?  Penultimate deposit: £5800/£6000
