it took new labour and the banks to drop us all in the shit
I actually think I benefited from the 'Goodtimes' by saving any excess earnings created from it. Mostly though I think it was because I wasn't carried away with all the offers of easy loans and credit cards' If anything I took advantage by composting the leaflets of temptation which kept coming through the door

Best thing I ever did during the good times was to make over payments on my monthly mortgage repayments, saved me ££££ and knocked about 4 years of the mortgage term. One of the best days of my life when I made that last payment. Then I used to recycle all the offers from banks, building societies, etc! wanting to lend me money as I had a good credit rating.
Sold me big house , family up and gone, have got a nice two bed two bath appartment in the UK and also bought this place in Spain
