I suppose this qualifies - fixed rate mortgage due to finish at the end of October, leaving us with a five figure sum to cover - houses aren't cheap in the National Park. The idea, originally, was to secure another, low interest, two year fixed deal and then pay the remainder off............and then the fuckwits take over the asylum. Cashed in the stocks and shares ISA, before everything tanked and paid it all off. Feels, sort of, liberating.
