    I've decided to leave all my PayPal Ebay sales money in there until payday then I'll top it up to a round number in £25 increments and pay off the mortgage. Got a £75 as a work bonus in an am@zon card so sold that amd with my other sales, I paid £300 off the mortgage! 
    Mortgage start date Dec 2019 - £217,000  MFD Dec 2034
    Mortgage currently £163,750 MFD 2030
