Now...

Current mood: GIMPO!!!

is a good time to be skint....


Yes boss, having money has been the basis of a good thing for some time now, but as the credit crunches through it's lunchbox (INCLUDING THE PLASTIC) being skint is BECOMING FASHIONABLE!!!!


Survival and thrift and MAKING GOOD!!!

on little and less is having it's day....


I'm loving it, because when I phone up on the day we're to be cut off electric, the company is interested in talking about payment plans as opposed to DOOOMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!

I love it because it's much easier to dick about on the rent, and start STATING ONE'S OWN TERMS when dealing with estate agents and landlords...

I LOVE THE ENDLESS FINANCIAL DISASTER PORN!!!!


And when you have nothing to loose, you can do very well in a recession...


So all round, I'm LOVIN IT LOVIN IT LOVIN IT!!!!


One thing I didn't however love in todays budget announcement was the increased tax on booze..

No boss, drink is an easy target for politicians, and the UK taxes pleasure like no other land - which is very tedious...

It's clear to see that such a fiscal policy just makes any problems worse...

And the pubs are dying....


Lastly...

I've noticed that no-one BIG seems to be thinking too much about the idea of 2 or 3% annual economic growth as being anything BUT a good thing.

But when much money is enough???


It's assumed we're inevitably going back to the good £$£$£$£$£$£$£$£ old days...

Sounds like a 35 year old boxers mentality to me...
