    which mortgage loan to repay

    Sarah, I'm already on the BoS tracker at the moment, which I think it a good rate. I think I'm on 4% now with the recent increases... or perhaps it's not 4.25. With one loan at 10 years and one at 20 years.... and the main one at 30 years.... I think remortgaging to any period would increase...

    in that case I should repay towards the loan with the largest amount and longest term to get most bang for the buck, as long as I am OK to keep monthly repayments as they are?

    Crisp'n'dry vs. Diesel

    using recycled veggie oil (called WVO waste veggie oil) without cleaning will kill your engine. You must filter it and "de-water" it and you will be left with glycerine as a byproduct. it also takes time to clean it etc etc BTW there is no difference to performance or fuel consumption.

    Crisp'n'dry vs. Diesel

    there is no duty (currently) on SVO. However, you have to pay VAT. The veggie oil in Tesco has no VAT on it as it's food. You can therefore go and buy it for 66c/litre but it's hassle if you are running on 100%. When you buy approved SVO (from eilish oils for example) you are paying VAT and...
