Not affected much here. But then I am living a peasant lifestyle as a smallholder and so my costs are quite low compared to most people and I don't have a mortgage.
In the local towns we are seeing some businesses close down.
I suspect I may be a bit of a disappointment to Mr Darling. I drive a 10 year old car, my much loved leather jacket cost £15 at Oxfam, my jeans come from the local agro supplier, I bought one new book this year (and many sh) and we don't give or receive presents at Christmas....
