    Hello, I would like to tack on for the end of this year please :smile:
    I would also like peoples advice... Is it better to OP direct onto the mortgage? Or to save a lump sum and pay off at the end of the year?
    My plan was to OP as and when we had funds, but someone told me today that we would save more interest by paying off as a lump sum before remortgaging.
    Just let me know your target for the rest of the year, and I'll allocate you a number :) 

    I'm going to aim for £1000 op for the rest of the year. I have an expensive November, but going to do my best!

    That's great, thank you! You've got #100, nice and round :)
