    Due to a monthly drop in income of 40% (so much for being a Chartered Engineer!), severe belt tightening has had to take place. I have been using at least £15 a week in electricity folding and we just cannot afford it at the moment. The money from my mum has run out and we are struggling financially, so I have reluctantly had to knock the folding on the head for now and cancel subs to CPC, Computer Shopper and PC Pro UFN. Hope to be back when I win the Lottery! :sigh:

    Sorry to here about your situation, and I hope things pick back up for you in the near future.
    Unfortunately, I think there might well be others going down a similar route with the current economic situation - but, chin up, you've made a stirling contribution to F@H, and I think you'll remain in the team top 20 for some time to come ..... :clap:

    You have my sympathy - I am beginning to consider cutting down electricity consumption.
