I work in technology for a bank so we've all been hit by an enforced 3 year 2% pay deal and there's a lot of outsourcing going on. Lots of running around and trying to get new business in cash deposits. pretty standard for all UK banks just now I think.
That's grim about your business mate. time to emigrate?

Sold my flat in February, having had it for about 2 1/2 years. Glad I didn't wait longer, even if my journey to our current major project is 80 mins rather than the 30 it would have been where I was before. Work/client pays for the travel expenses, so I don't lose financially either way.
Work is drying up a bit from the UK at the moment, but we're seeing more leads come out of Europe, particularly the Eastern side.
My shopping/grocery bill seems to be going up every week that passes. It's the price rises of bread (and other staple foods) that really hurts. That and the cost of petrol - dreading the day when I fill the car up from empty (70 litres) and it's £100... the £1.43 per litre needed for this seems eye (and wallet) wateringly close.

only felt it because thieves are getting bolder ... house was broken into Thursday Night /Friday Morning, couple of laptops, digital camera's, Wii - though surprisingly not the still boxed Wii Fit. Fortunately they didn't take any of the cars, the keys were out so could have easily taken them.
The worrying this is I was upstairs asleep at the time
didn't hear a thing

Not good to hear mark, just glad they didn't take the cars as you've some nice one's there. Probably left them incase they made a noise with them or the shutter doors.only felt it because thieves are getting bolder ... house was broken into Thursday Night /Friday Morning, couple of laptops, digital camera's, Wii - though surprisingly not the still boxed Wii Fit.

I have been posted to Germany and I recently returned after being away for just 2 months. Drove off the ferry to be met with £1.28 per litre dieseland to compound it further up the road we paid £6.60 for an orange juice, glass of water and a piece of shortbread. To top off the weekend I crashed my push bike at 60kph in the race I was riding, doing £600 worth of damage aswell as peeling my left side so happy days.
The wife an I are seriously looking at staying here or Holland when I finish, it isn't until you experience somewhere else that you realise just how shafted the British are by taxes etc.You might leave the S2 fold every so often - but you'll always come back!Comment
