I've always had to be careful, but have still managed to build up quite a stash and do the odd class here and there.

We're only just getting hit with the whole "recession" thing now though, hubby is in the construction trade and they're behind everyone else. So we've got a real tight year coming up. If we can last one year, we'll be doing ok. It takes a year from a building being drawn on paper, to when they start construction (hubby does the windows). So when the recession hit, we still had a years worth of work. Now we're running out, but it's supposedly easing. So in another year, we'll have more work.
