    I can't get stressed cos it's all to funny to be real.
    I now have an income of £62 a week if I get the full JSA and outgoings of £200 without food and petrol etc.
    I just keep giggling - and I'm sober as can't afford wine.

    Do you find it hard to adjust at first when he comes back...
    na never have done so far all the stuff they publish in families leaflets about periods of adjustment has never concerned us;)
    seriously though we both see things in a black or white way it happens so....so what that was then this is now
    we try not to bring problems but solutions so we have never had a problem with homecomings.

    Bookie, wont you be entitled to other benefits too, income support, housing benefit, anything like that? Have you seen a benefits adviser at the CAB or anything?

    And course we missed you, silly!

    Chat is always quiet through the summer holidays, people go away, or spend time with their families - imagine!!! :D
