    I’ve been eagerly awaiting the new thread.  Would like to aim for £3000 next year.  I would love number 5 if still free as it’s my lucky number but understand if already taken.  Thanks Julicorn and Merry Christmas to you all x
    Number 5 is all yours! Merry Christmas to you too :)

    Hi Julicorn

    thanks for running this again.

    I was  #35 this year but happy to change, will leave that to you.

    my target will be £14,000 but that will include a one off payment in January of 8k as I remortgage and then normal monthly overpayments if I can.

    thanks
    Fab, I've moved you up to number 6 if that works for you!

    Hi julicorn,

    Thank you for organising this again ❤️

    Please can I stick with number 12 and I'm going to go for an ambitious £10,000 overpayment target this year.

    Thanks 🙂
    Great stuff, and lucky number 12 is still yours!

    Could I join for the first time please?
    Can I go for a target of £15,000 please?
    Absolutely, welcome aboard! You've got number 8 this year :) 

    I'd like to join again please :) Happy to keep #59! Much lower target for me of £3,000, but will hopefully be achievable!
    Welcome back, and £3k is still a hefty target! :)

    This is the time of year where I really should look up some bingo call-outs.

    Can I join again? Happy to keep no.23. As for a target, I have no idea what 2025 holds for me financially so I think I will go for £5,000 and hope I make it.

    Thanks for running the challenge,

  • Hi,

    Please can I join? I don’t strictly have a mortgage yet but it should be set up in the next couple of months (my brother and I are buying out our other two brothers on our family home after Mum passed away in August - we’re waiting on probate to go through). Can I set a small target of £2000 and see how I go.

    Thanks
  • Another new joiner :smile: £1200 for me please
