Thank you all for participating this year, and for all your updates
It'd be a boring challenge without all of you, that's for sure!
It's that time of the year where we're getting ready for 2025, and if you'd like to take part again, or join for the first time next year, please head over to the new thread to sign up.
If you've posted an update in the last 6 months, I've saved your number for now - please let me know (in the new thread!) if you'd like to keep it, or move numbers. Lower numbers are often available
At the beginning of the new year, I'll make the unclaimed numbers available for everyone.
See you on the other side, but of course please keep participating here until the end of December - there's still time to make another little OP or two if you can

Last OP for 2024, £115
Thanks julicorn 🙂
Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the endQuidquid Latine dictum sit altum videtur1 -
#6 - Last OP of 2024 - £250. And this OP saw another month knocked off the mortgage which was exciting.
I fell off the OP wagon for a bit as decided to sort out our emergency fund and so all money was diverted there. Think it's sorted now though (I hope).
I'm hoping to OP more next year but a steady OP of even £50 per month would see me happy.
Reduction in daily mortgage interest since October 23 (new mortgage) - £2.84 December 25
% of house owned/% of mortgage paid off. December 25 - 40.34%/33.36%
