Britain and British people have been getting steadily less wealthy over the last 30 or 40 years.
this has been masked, for a time, by both husband and wife working when in the past it was in the main the one income. this has meant a steady increase in the cost of living and housing until now even with both partners working housing etc is becoming out of reach for many |

The minimum wage is a joke anyone who wants to work ,should be able to live well enough ,people having to work two and three jobs is a joke
Even housing association rents are starting to go through the roof |

stop spending. manage your own finances. i.e. don't buy £3 coffees from starbucks every day. buy local and buy british.
the only thing you can do is to earn more or spend less or both. there's no point moaning about it, the wealthy get wealthier and everything goes up in price. it's been that way since robin hood times. |

The biggest cost is housing. Take that out of the equation and its not that difficult to get by if you are sensible.

Slippy, I read you were a Palace fan on here.
Is that mediocre pub you mention the Bricklayers arms by any chance? |
|
By:
No jamesdean, it was The Tulse Hill Tavern but I know The Brick well from back in the day. It's a terrible scruffy gaff now, I went there last Summer to meet someone, had 1 pint and left. Yes a Palace fan all my life for my sins, I think we'll be OK to stay up this year. I usually drink in The Alleyne's Head in Dulwich or The Commercial in Herne Hill. The Half Moon in Herne Hill has reopened and by all accounts they have done a great job doing it up so will pop in for a look at the weekend. The Bricklayers is an absolute shocking pub!

I was in there few weeks back, thought it was alright! That said it was during the day
Went into the crooked billet and walked straight back out, then moon and stars  Penge not what it was a few years back! Yeah hope yous stay up, aint sure on Big Sam as a person but he gets results. Think the Bridge just down from Palace park gates is meant to be a bit better these days but never had the time unfortunately |
