Sorry your event got cancelled. Sounds wise though but yes hard for businesses.
Hope you find other ways to have fun. Have you ever tried geo-caching? I haven't but it's a kind of treasure hunt. Could be fun.Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

Yes cancellation was a shame. Geo-caching sounds interesting! I know when we have gone for walks my children do something similar where they get to collect something on an app for finding a location of something! 😏 not sure what they call it maybe it’s that?savingholmes said:Sorry your event got cancelled.

As of this month my balance is bang on year 5 of my original mortgage payment schedule. As of this month I have had my mortgage for 2yrs5mths. I know I am hoping to get to £380k when I need to remortgage in 2023 but for now I will make a mini target balance of £396755 which is the next balance @6yrs on the payment schedule below. What I want is to see how quickly I will reach that yr6 figure.
