@hector wats ur year prediction? End of this year wat we saying? Interest rates? Jobs? Everything? Then we can discuss at end of year.u keep giving predictions and nothing has come true
 
I don’t agree, it’s supply and demand. There isn’t enough housing stock for the population simple as that. We’re a small island that’s overpopulated, people living longer, more divorces etc. If it’s case of affordability that will lead people to rent ie first time buyers then that’s what it will be, people will always need somewhere to live.
property will always go up over time there’s peaks and troughs along the way, but still one of your best leverages against inflation is bricks and mortar.

we've got 200 plots alone for rowland need completing for the end of July...

that's without all the persimmon Charles church Taylor whimpey etc sites

1. heating bills/fuel prices /and shopping in supermarkets will hit people much harder then they think,
2. unfourtanetly the job situation will worsen , as companies try to absorb the increases, but only a matter of time before increases are passed down to the public,
3.people will cut back there spending in a big way , just to survive,
4. intrest rates will continue to go up
5. sites will close down/put on hold , and all knock on effects that will have,
6. covid will still be here ,but will continue to mutatate into a new type of virus, lockdown on the way,
 
Most trades are on 250 a day.
My mate a carpenter takes a young lad to the job with him. He tells the client that the cost is 250 per day per man. Paying the lad 100 ,leaves him on 400 per day.
dont doubt what you are saying malc, but never get 250 a day up here

There will be plenty of changes both big and small, but it doesn't mean everything will be worse. For example, I got into the habit of making lunch instead of buying it during the lockdown/s and I've just continued doing it. Which got me thinking, I can't remember when or why I stopped?

It appears that the huge number of convenience food shops created a demand to supply, because they certainly aren't a necessity. 'Back in the day' some Fridays lunch would be from the chippy or a hot sandwich from the roach coach. Apprentices would get their's bought for them in return for keeping their fitter's toolbox clean and tidy during the week. Pre-pandemic it was the accepted norm to spend four or five times the cost of a packed lunch on a single sandwich.

So I would suggest that such a wide range of convenience food, coffee shops and the like are now being exposed as a poor business model rather than being let down by anyone. Quite a few things were exposed during the recent turmoil which gave rise to people thinking "Hang on a minute ....". Convenience food is an expensive way to eat badly, everyone driving to supermarkets is unnecessary, importing everything may be cheaper until you can't get something, leasing vehicles/machinery (overheads which had to be covered rather than capital assets) etc. Not all of the knock on effects will be bad medium to long term, but the adjustment will be painful in the short term.

Yes but to what end will interest go to? How much will your bog standard loaf of bread cost?.what you've predicted is obvious I could of predicted it so say interest rates by end of year are we looking at 7% then? Are we looking at street riots by the end of the year? Are we looking at 10s of thousands of sites closing down? Are we looking at £3 for a loaf of bread etc etc.uve predicted the obvious.id like your predictive doomsday facts so I can call you out on them at end of year as you like giving them

I’ve been paying £4 easy for a loaf for a couple of years , in fact brought one today , normally at least 2 a week
 
Blackbird bakery but I like the multi seed from sainsburys too
Can’t stand white sliced bread that’s still soft 3werks later
I dont eat white bread..its multi grain or super seeded.i know a Baker who charges £3.50 plus for a small loaf.aint 4 me as don't eat it that often

nobody can be that precise spudnit

But then it's like you saying listen now one day the world is going to end you watch mark my words.you need to be a little more precise then you've never predicted anything right.every man and his dog knows fuel bills are going up and inflation..so what you do think interest rates will go to by end of this year let's start with that?

The thing is it is a lot of money considering, but most always gets eaten, whereas the other stuff just use to get thrown as no one eat it
And considering I buy 2 coffees a day at the best part of 3 quid it’s not bad value imo
 
dont doubt what you are saying malc, but never get 250 a day up here

With the high cost of housing in the south east.
Londoners now working from home they are moving out to Essex/Suffolk where the properties seem to be bargain prices. Therefore an extra couple of grand on a bit of plastering is nothing.
My best earner is DPC jobs . I fit the cream , replaster in Limelite renovation, I hire a cleaner at the end of the work to make sure every thing is spotless. Never break into a sweat .

Fair bit of truth in that,My mrs makes me a sandwich everyday, I always take a pack up.
one of the lads that works for us buys sarnies etc every day madness, money down drain, then 20 tabs.
