I so know where you are coming from I've got 2 teenagers and a 10 year old with a massive appetite and I sometimes feel like I'm trying to fill a bottomless pit.

            OK I have written out this months overpayment cheque so thats another £540 overpaid:j
Even better is that if I keep up the overpayments, with the new rate cut I could be mortgage free in 52 months which is only 4 years 4 months:T
Doubt the rate will stay low for long but its a nice thought isnt it:rolleyes:
Managed to grab a M shop for £12.50 but they are very thin on the ground at the moment.
