This is a question The Credit Crunch

Did you score a bargain in Woolworths?
Meet someone nice in the queue to withdraw your 10p from Northern Rock?
Get made redundant from the job you hated enough to spend all day on b3ta?

How has the credit crunch affected you?

Ask Epicurus
I no longer watch The News, or anything grown up like Question Time. I avoid newspapers.

I get books out of the library, drink £1.50 pints of IPA in Wetherspoons, and invest time and energy growing my own vegetables on my new allotment.

Previous recessions have lasted around 15 months or so and then its back to normal, and the fact that we are posting on a forum means that at the very least we have internet access. Lets try and just direct our feet, to the sunny side of the street.

I should add that I did not have a small number of Wetherspoons IPAs at lunch time so I might be best ignored.

Nope
I like your style. If more people were like this we wouldn't be such a bunch of miserable defeatist bastards.

Oi!

Oh yeah!
Well, why don't you just, I don't know, blame the tories or the daily mail or something. I don't know. Maybe we should all just try and get along?

Agreed...
But IPA!? Man you're sick.

I am now :-(

Something funny must have once happened to me or someone I know in relation to credit crunches. I'm going to have a good think.

Isn't IPA 99p now at 'spoons?

yes it is
when they have any- I like this anyway but since they cut the price, suddenly everyone's started to like it, and they're allowed out to play earlier than I am.
