You and me both Torto. F#ck me it's been a long month.

Off of one wage;

Pre-holiday works night out.
Tapering off from that.
Mates home for Christmas.
Christmas.
That bewildering spell between Xmas and NY when no-one knows what's happening. "What day is it?", "Are the bars open?", "Is Tesco's open?", "Are the bins being emptied?", "Is there football on?" "Is the bookies open?" "What day is it?" "Let's get pissed it's all too confusing."
New Year.
Tapering off from that.
Then a whole f#ckin month to live off at the back of that! As our house prices drop. As our fuel prices rise. As our food prices rise. As our pension's hit zero because of some maverick from Paris. As credit crunches. As recession appears on the horizon. I, for one, have been living in a f#ckin recession ever since I left my parent's house 15 years ago.

And I thought only 0.00001% of our population, ie the City Boys with all their pre-birth privileges crunching near meaningless numbers in computers as they played with peoples lives, would suffer in an economic crisis. How wrong I was.

Mortgages should go down a bit next month though

so feckin true.

That week you mention in between xmas and new year. I went out twice that week and spent much more than an average night out even though I knew I'd be skint! How does that work? Get up next day, check online balance and I'd pulled out the cash when steaming - ATMs should have breathalysers on them.
