Nah! wouldn't do that, never know what you might catch down there

Thanks guys. At present we are living on just one income as my other half is seeking work,(made redundant). We do not claim any benefits as she hopes to be back in work asap.
Other travel is for partners bus usage. Thanks again guys, i am aware the OR will make cuts where required but at the moment this is what it costs us! Well i hope he or she is having a good day!
Thanks everyone0 -
You may find you have a problem with the OR because your OH is not contributing to the household.BSCno.87The only stupid question is an unasked oneLoving life as a Kernow Hippy0

What can i expect the OR to say? This is our current circumstance, should she claim job seekers allowance in the meantime?
Oh god you have me really worried, i hope the OR understands.0
