Ahh, so that's why I'm so skint at the moment

34-year-olds living through the most expensive year of their lives.

Joanna Same here...

Lend us a tenner....

Isobel Spending £88 a day? I was lucky if I had that to spend for a week - for the two of us.
Mind you, all these new-fangled decimal pounds still confuse me. Bring back the groat ;o)

Jane £88 a day! Not round my jar of toffees. Somebody must have had a far better time than me. Unless the journos have only been interviewing themselves. So what with the cocaine and prada habits to maintain it begins to make sense.

Steph Angel 34... Ah them were the days... Two bob for a pint, tuppence hapenny for a bag of chips, penny chews, and mobile phones the size of a house!!!

It doesn't get any better by the way :-/

Clarissa 34... If I start saving now I should be able to afford the sort of expenditure indicated by the time that age rolls round.

Genette The article finishes with this gem:
"Think about it: every man and woman in the UK has, on average, one breast and one testicle. Now that's gender equality."

I think we need more of Becky's maths classes...

Connie Cox Hmm I have until Saturday to sabe...bugger!

Kath Adams My thought process went something like...

£88.88 per day? Rubbish! That's err.. [scrambles for calculator, taps in 88.88*365] ahh, almost exactly my salary.

And how much more have I got in the bank this year compared to this time last year? Bog all.

So the only thing wrong is I reached that state six years too late (or I'm really only 34?).

I'd have a damn site more in the bank if Per Una & Next weren't available on-line!

Connie Cox hmm Nice typing by me there

Tiffany Wonder how much it'll be in 14 years...when I'm 34...

Tiffany Okay, the fact that no one said anything after me makes me feel very depressing. Forget I was even born, and return to the other dialogues already in progress.

Becky Aw Tiff! I think the conversation had died anyway, I don't think it's your fault. :-)

Tiffany Okay, so it's just the fact that I'm across an ocean and the conversation was already over. Not just me. Gotcha.
