Hi i agree Julian,

Unemployment will get worse before it will get any better, i just hope that we dont have to be one of those numbers, the company that my OH works for are starting to see job loses so fingers crossed if not we will have to rethink everything.

Its a scary time for all, i thought going BR would be scary but what is going on within the economy is far, far more scary :-(

LOL

Hi RHB,

Unfortunately, I think it's inevitable we will.

Interst rates are 2% in the 80's they were 15%, in the 80's over 3 million were unepmloyed we haven't reached that yet & hopefully we won't.

Hi Jim

I totally agree with you, we are all in the same boat and i dont mean with the bankruptcy either.

No job is safe anymore, i m just glad that i did the deed when i did as one of our other companies that had a debt of ours has now gone into administration and thats Robinson way part of London Scottish so it just goes to show its everywhere.

My biggest worry is the fuel bills, i will have about a £350 gas bill in jan but i refuse to turn it off as i have 3 kiddies and i have turned it down but still seeing as they keep hiking up the prices its goes up and up.

I dont really remember the last one, but my feeling is this is much, much worse than those.

Hi Jim,

Personally, I think we're looking at the worst downturn since the great depression. Unfortunately, I think things are likely to get worse before they get better.
