Yeah if only the press would shut up about it!
If you talk about it enough and scare enough people, we'll talk ourselves into recession.

I agree, you even see it on some of these threads, there's the "I haven't got a property yet, so I'll tell everyone that their property is worth 90% less so maybe I can have a chance of owning a penthouse in Kensington for £100k" brigade. Also there's the "If you've got more than £35k in a bank you're likely to lose it and everyone is watching their accounts by the hour" tts

I think there must be alot of 15 year old kids on here playing truant.

Precisely. It's a real shame.
Oh well, it's not going to change my spending habits!
If I can't get a mortgage because of banks being unwilling to lend, i'll spend it enjoying my money with cars instead!
