Been on MFi3 for a while trying to OP, but things just seemed to keep getting in the way. Ready now to focus on making real progress. Not sure how much I will be able to manage, but would like to aim for a target of £2000 by the end of the year.
Thanks AI've given you #151 now.

Hi, #86 again! We were paid on the 15th so I've swept everything left at the end of the month to the mortgage giving another overpayment of £1994.47. We're still plugging away, but now we're under my original 80% LTV target which is nice. Mortgage is still massive though, and lots to pay off!
