Exciting times, welcome to the challenge! You've got #25 for 2021Ami-Rose said:I'd like to join please! We should be completing on our house in the next 2 weeks!
I'd like to aim for a modest £1600 to go in the emergency fund rather than overpayments as I'm sure there'll be all kinds of expenses cropping up to start with. 😊
