I am just curious to know how bad things really are back home. Whenever I read the British papers it is very much doom and gloom. It seems that a lot of people have been affected with the credit crunch. I live in Canada and in my life I have become much more money conscious, my grocery bill being the most affected. It always surprises me though that my friends and family in England will say how awful it is but in the next sentence tell me of their holiday they have booked to Portugal for example.
Just interested in people's opinions on this.
