Default I love the Credit Crunch

Now, don't get me wrong, I am worried about what's happening out there, but...

...I can now book a hotel last min in this country and get decent rooms!

Hurray, Mr Lou won't shout at me for leaving our weekend away till last min.
Anyone else found an upside to these hard times?

If you believe what you read in the papers/news, you'd think that there were no property deals on at all at the moment.

If so, then why is Sarah - my conveyancing assistant - fully occupied with property deals? I think it's because we have never sought to fleece clients, we have alwys offerd a quality and value for money service, and clients remember that. Most of our property work is from existing clients or recommendations, and not through agents.

However there is another upside. People are wishing their hand back on contracts they entered, and I have an explosion of civil litigation work
