Feeling the credit crunch

The impact of the credit crunch is starting to reach further into my everyday life than I’d expected. I was speaking to one of the ladies who help run the boat club and she was saying how we’re going to find it hard generating revenue this year.

Many of the companies who sponsor the clubs big events, like our regatta, are pulling out or reducing funding. Iit could get really difficult for the club but I think the team spirit shall come into play and we’ll find more people pulling together to raise money or reduce cost. I’ve found myself doing little things like turning off the lights when not needed. I wonder if we could hook up the ergos to the grid and supply our own power!
