So with the Christmas tree now sent back to the recycle centre it is back to business. The news is full up with doom and gloom of the financial position of UK and the stalemate situation with the housing market.
It is my opinion that although the Banks and Financial Institutions had a difficult last quarter of 2007 they will work that much harder in the first quarter of 2008 to regularise their positions and move on to newer markets through the second half of this year. Bank interest rates which are due to drop again over the next 6 months will help change a situation.
Look, quite simply the Banks etc are in the business to lend money and charge fees so they will work a way out of the present difficulties.
It will be a great year for all sport with the Olympics at Beijing and the interest in UK who stage the next in 2012. Football is at an all time high in UK with the world watching the Premiership on Sky.
Sports at the front are Boxing, Sailing, Rugby , Cycling and even Darts now has a massive TV audience. Horse Racing has improved its facilities over the last few years and is a fantastic days entertainment. Even most of the jockeys are now media savvy !!!
Prices of goods will be cheap in the shops and the buying public will still want to travel, further and further afield. There are more people on the trains travelling than back in the steam hey days of the fifties.
My suggestions for the first half of 2008 is work hard and watch the pennies. Spend wisely and keep credit under control. The rest of the year should begin to get better.
