You do seem to get local collusion on prices. I’ve noticed that the prices in and around Windsor always seem to be higher than everywhere else, including the supermarkets. I guess if you have a relatively closed market where a lot of your consumers are only driving in and around the same area you can probably get away with it.

Which may be painful for this chap. £25k on loans and credit cards, £1.8k per month servicing them. He says if business tails off he’ll need to tighten his belt and cut out the non essentials. Erm…

Have you read all of them?
My heart fucking bleeds for Louise Parker 
“We might not be able to buy a massive house in Brighton by borrowing to the absolute limit, due to incredibly low interest rates”
Seeing as you live in Brighton, get. In. The. Fucking. Sea.

I did read them all. “We may have to buy something £200k less than we hoped”. Right…
@Whisk I chuckled at that too. But I guess they’ve been low for so long there’s a whole generation that’s going to get a shock.

Did she not look at the absolutely petrifying KFI when she took out her mortgage?
The bit that says;
For example, if interest rates rose to 11.00%, your payments could increase to £MASSIVE NUMBER
in massive bold letters
Or when they tell you what the payment is at 3% over the current rate.
You know? The SVR you revert to.
Can you afford that even?
