Good to see you back. The nearest hotel to me is a ****ing dump and was on the verge of closure. Its now housing asylum seekers of various nations (including russians) and has saved the owners business. Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing is a matter of opinion. The NHS is at breaking point in general, my sis in law is absolutely fed up with it. Like yourself, does a job that not only millions are not qualified to do but wouldn't want to do either. She has literally £20 per month left of her wages for herself and she has made as many cuts to her lifestyle as possible.

Sorry to hear about your sister in law's situation. I keep hearing really similar stories to this. Anyone else fearful that we're about to go through [or have started to through] a period much more painful than the early 2010s? I feel like there is less fat to cut from household budgets, house prices forecast to go down quite fast next year, interest rate rises only just starting to bite and will go up yet again, inflation rampant and no sign of it slowing, energy costs, public services demanding more money, but the budget deficit seemingly bigger than ever, pound very weak, international trade hit hard, cracks starting to appear in the 'jobs miracle' etc etc. I'm starting to genuinely fear that we'll go through a 'major economic reset' that could hurt a lot of people. Edit - I'd be interested to see if household debts are in a better place than 2010s too. I fear not.

That sums it up well. Feels like we're on the edge of a precipice, alongside Europe and most of the rest of the world
