The Future

Despite everything that the politicains and bankers have done to destroy this world of ours, there is still a future. This is evidenced by the fact that as I sit here now I have four weddings, two 21st birthday parties, two Christmas/New Year parties and a graduation to look forward to - all of them already firm dates in the calendar and taking us through to October 2010.

And while there may be no pay rises to look forward to we can look forward to loans ending and freeing up money that has previously been commited to servicing those loans. So we will be better placed to save and survive.

As for the youngsters, Andy is almost there with just one module left to get to achieve his BMW Senior Technician certificate. Mark is starting to look for suitable post-graduate positions for when he has completed his degree course and he's still on for a first class degree, so let us all hope he achieves it. Their girlfriends are both studying for thier respective qualifications and while job opportunities are thin on the ground right now they continue in the hope and belief that the good times will return and that things will pick up.

So yes, there is a future and we just have to live it as we find it and the hand it deals us.
