    Warchests depleted?

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8490810.stm

    New borrowing on credit cards, loans and overdrafts has outstripped the amount being paid back by UK consumers for the first time since June.

    Unsecured consumer credit rose £52m in December, driven by credit card borrowing, the Bank of England said.


    The fun starts soon I reckon.

          Try spending one of your stuffed squirrels and see where that gets you.
