you go dogbert – would be so easy to chuck in the towel !
looking round me n the mrs have a few friends that we go out with regular – one lot have just done the new house , wedding,new car thing as a result of a windfall from family another couple have just done the same on tick – my mrs has spotted this and thinks we can do the same , i may seem like the grinch but im refusing , she understands now ive sat down and explained but you can see why people do it – it does seem attractive short term.
already got one friend thats went bankrupt through over indulgance in fast cars – now his mrs is complaining they cant get a car !
charity shops , gumtree and freecycle for our first house till we get on our feet !
its like everyone forgot the 80s when even the infallible oil industry sucumbed to the issues everyone else had !
