I've definitely been deliberating it!!! My current thinking is that I would be cheating myself a bit, I wouldn't really feel debt-free if I had little "debts" to myself still outstanding (plus it would make May payday very dull, as I'd be repaying those and not putting the money where it's meant to be going 🙁). So May payday it is, I think. Will just mean I have an extremely annoying balance throughout the month of May!Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)
