No stock here, and the only way the "credit crunch" has affected me, is that no company in their right mind or not will give me a credit card these days, even though I have perfect credit. I also read about Egg contacting thousands of customers saying their credit cards won't be renewed either.
Lovely.
I also read that savings in bank accounts in the UK may be affected, but only if you have over £50,000 (say about $90,000) in there. What a tragedy. In my opinion, if you have over £50,000 in the bank you can spare a couple of quid.
Completely off topic, but the people who would whine about this reminds me of a train journey I had a couple of weeks ago. I paid over £70 ($130) to go to Wales on the train, but of course, it was so packed, and so smelly I was expecting to see someone with a goat and a crazy old lady at the back holding a chicken. So there I was cramped against a broken train toilet, when this lady came on and started barging through yelling "I have reserve seats! Let me through!" - I couldn't help but yell back "And I've been standing here for 4 hours! Now shut the hell up and sit on your suitcase like everyone else!".
Bloody Capitalism.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
