Well, the media is full of the collapsing currency and general economic woes, but for most people I talk to life just seems to go on as ever.

So - question for today. How are you being affected by the credit crunch? Are you making personal economies? And those of you in private industry, what are you seeing of the downturn?

The thing which irritates me is the magazines with headlines like "Ten ways to save money during the crunch!" and so on, and then when you buy and read them they're always things like:
1) Shout "Bah! Humbug!" a lot and strike passing orphans about the head.
2) Gives your relatives lumps of coal for Christmas

And I do those things anyway, so all that happens is that I waste money on a magazine for suggestions I didn't need.

Your mother & I were moaning about this the other night, all the journalists turning out articles on "Ways to cut £50 off your household bills!" What planet do these people live on anyway? If I did that, they'd be paying me.
