#16  Final scrapings of the month brings March to £627.34 please jilicorn.

When I awake in the morning my mortgage will move into the next 'bracket' from 70k to 60k.... not by much but I'm very chuffed.  Hoping that I can get to 65k in the next 5 months.  

@f0xh0les... I will be having a happy dance in the morning!

Love reading how everyone is doing, big or small, it is very motivating.

Can I join as I've just moved onto MFW thread today? Do I need an official number?
Setting a small-ish target as we're in the middle of trying to change over to a repayment mortgage as soon as we can. If we can pay an extra £200 per month then that's £2000 from now till December.

Of course you can Your number is 122. Just post your overpayments in here whenever you make them

Hi Julicorn, 
Could I please join the challenge with a target of £5000? I took part in last year's challenge but had to take a break at the end of 2020/start of 2021 to beef up my emergency fund a bit. I'm ready to get back to focusing on the mortgage now with a first overpayment of £500 this month. 
Thanks!

Welcome back, great to have you on board again! You've got #123 this year.

Hi.  #48 with an o/p for March of £99.43.  Thanks Julicorn x

Hi @Flower_of_scotland , can I check what your total is for March? I already had an overpayment of £102.22 logged for March, so assume this is in addition? If you have minute, it would be great if you could check and confirm if that's all correct

Hi, can I join please? We’ve just moved and increased our mortgage amount and term, now to start clearing it off! 

I have no idea realistically what our target should be, we’re still trying to figure out our monthly finances after job changes and increased utilities! 

Of course you can Just let me know what target you'd like me to note down, even if it's just a placeholder for now, and I'll give you a number then x

Hi there, #130 reporting a March OP of £300. You asked yonks ago if I was happy with taking a lower number on the spreadsheet, I'm happy with any number at all! Thanks
