  • Big hugs & know EXACTLY what you mean although my bank were faster & sent the letter the day after the Bank of England increased rates!!! My recent car accident has also cost me a bomb & while most of it will come back its still v.demoralising but I guess life, even as DFW, will bring ups & downs! Chin up & as already stated at least you're aware of it now & making up for the difference rather than saying stuff it & spending more!!

  • thats true, its just so frustrating, you think you free up £50 a month in one place and then it is gone before you blink!
