#132 here - OP of £250 for September, which means I've now met my YTD OP target, with a total YTD now of £4,018.80. Thanks in advance @julicorn. I'm also excited for October, as my outstanding amount on the mortgage will finally be below the £100k mark, which feels like a big milestone. Still a long way to go, but getting there!5

#58 here, I managed to make my final payment of £2,400. Thank you for maintaining this and having me on board the board for the last 2 years it has helped keep me focussed, i think attack the mortgage will be on the back burner for a while whilst we pick through the bones of the current climate. I hope everyone here is ok and are able to keep their heads up.06/06/2023 mortgage mort dateJUST BRING IT3
