    Thank you all for your lovely comments and great updates while I was away! I had a wonderful time on holiday, but am also happy to be back to see what you've all been up to. 😆
    I've updated the sheet now, but as always let me know if I missed anything. 😊

    So after weighing up pros and cons of paying mortgage off versus savings we decided to pay the mortgage off and continue our saving journey towards retirement, so that’s what we did today, ⭐️⭐️

    thanks so much for the support, it’s been so encouraging and helpful 😊😊

    good luck to you all in your mortgage free journeys, signing out no 68
