Has it effected anyone on here? i know my mate got made redundant last month, he was a apprentice Bricklayer. Was his final year as an aprentice aswell.

my over time bit the dust about 12 month ago and its a struggle on basic wage what with gas' fuel' and food prices going up all the time but i still have a job so things ant that bad to be honest i'm paying my bills and have a bit left over for the match and a drink at the weekend so thats the main thing im happy with that
