    Hi @julicorn

    I'd like to take part this year for the first time. Will set a 4k overpayment target which might be a bit of a stretch but would see us well into a mortgage beginning with an 8 :smile:

    Many thanks

    Hi I was #61 last year and happy to keep it or move. My target next year will be £2000. Which with everything we’ve been through this year will be a miracle. Wish us luck.
