    Oops I've just realised that I haven't updated on my overpayments since May. Here are my totals:
    May 258
    June 250
    July 200
    August 200
    That's for no.7. Thanks :)

    #55 with an OP of £383 for August. Odd amount but it takes my mortgage to £52,999 only you lot would understand.  :)
    Takes my total OP for this year to £3443.
    Thank you for your update! Could you do me a favour and check the updates I've got logged for you so far? I only have your total as £3,183, so I've probably missed one of your overpayments along the way :)

    Hi Julicorn,
    Thanks, I have looked at the spreadsheet and there is an additional OP of £260 in June which I think I forgot to report. Please can you add that to my June OP which would take it from £800 to £1060?  :) Thanks for keeping track for us all, really appreciate it.
    Aiming to early retire December 31st 2026.

  • Hello!  Sorry I have not posted since January - with everything going on and the uncertainty of starting a new job in the middle of lockdown I couldn't bring myself to make OPs just in case the worst happened but did try and not spend the OPs!  I have made some good progress now though and although it will be a MASSIVE stretch to meet my target, I am going to give a darn good go!
    Updates for me:
    Feb - OP of £750
    June - OP of £2223.82
    August - OP of £3038.35
    Thanks Julicorn!
