    #3 starting off Feb with a £234.79 extra OP (Council Tax for this month plus P*lific and a bit of rounding so it covers a month's interest) and our new standard OP of £636.52, making Feb's OP total to date £871.31.
    Quite pleased with that after the unexpected student loan payments of last month.
