    :grouphug: have a dodgy hug PO, glad it's over.

    Now, onwards & downwards, we'll be chucking you off this board before you know it :)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    Glad it's all sorted finally - as you say you can draw a definite line now and it IS all in the past.

    Onwards and upwards and a mortgage free future (soon) to look forward to.

    Best wishes on this sunny day.

    Well, not quite the £300 i was hoping for but £228, which bringss the total for the month to £1130 so not bad anyway! also rounds the op's for the year to £7k which is pleasing! gave my sister a cheque for some money i owed her ages ago and she hasn't banked it yet so daren't risk the £300! hopefully will manage to get mortgage balance below £2000 in july.
    this is starting to look very real!
    happy sunday!
