Wow at that view. Your pics make me want to sell up again. Stop it 😆😆
And for what it's worth I think you're doing it the right way, making sure the house is all yours before doing big things like the kitchen. This is a huge undertaking that I think DP and I both underestimated slightly 🫢🙈.Mortgage Overpayments 2024/25 - September-December, £152.46.

love the cat - and the view. Makes me want to go to the local beach but will not go without WattyDog.Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!2 -
Two very long and very hot days at work, so glad I am off tomorrow. Shame the weather is due to break but it’ll be better for a run I suppose.Mortgage OP 2025 £7050/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Day one of eleven days off, I need to make a todo list but have put a washing on and having a cup of tea in bed while the kitten runs around and jumps on me every now and again. Oh the energy…
A lot more month left than money so need to work out what I can eat from the freezer.Mortgage OP 2025 £7050/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
