I have already stated that we are not well off and are just about surviving.
What is really hurting us now, is that the pound has strengthened to the Euro. Most of our income is in Euro's.
My wife has just received a payment of euro's from a company she did work for. The swing in the pound means that if you are being paid a 1000 euros, today it is worth £50 less than a couple of weeks ago.

So if you are an exporter as my wife is, we as a family are being hit even harder. That cannot be good for the economy of the country and exporters.

All our money is spent locally.

Hope that makes sense
