    Five more days to next scheduled mortgage payment, then I’m on 9 months and counting.
    i reckon I will be left with £1000 of savings when I get to MF day in early May 2022, so it’s tight but will then slowly build some savings for emergencies. I’d be happy to get to £5000 in an emergency fund.

    Amazing! 

    I'll be in the same boat when we pay it off with a much smaller savings pot. But it should be easier to build it back up without the mortgage and op payments each month. Still feels a bit scary!
