    #154 checking in with a February total of £425.45
    Likely to be a bit of a go slow for a little while now as savings opportunities are a bit lumpy :)

    Do you have room for a late-comer please? I've not been on this thread in previous years but have been op-ing my mortgage. Total left to pay is £11,151.71, not counting interest of around £40 a month.

    Aiming to OP £3,000 by the end of 2018, i.e. £300 a month on average. My income varies a bit but we have a big holiday coming up in September and there's that little thing called Christmas too (though I still managed about £300 extra in December last year)... anyway I am saying my repayments will not be steady!

    20.5 coupons used in 2020. 62.5 used in 2021. 94.5 remaining as of 21/3/22

    Hiya, Can I join this please? Would love to pay off my mortgage in 10 years which would need overpayments totalling £9600 for 2018. Since it's nearly March and I haven't overpaid anything yet though and no idea how I'm going to get that much extra a month, I think £3000 is actually doable so can that be added as my target please?....and fingers crossed I'll smash it!!

    Welcome! You're #29. :)
