ETA Bonsibabe glad to have been of service. Basically with ANYTHING like this tell them (the powers that be LOL) as soon as you think you might be entitled and claims can usually be backdated...not least because EVERY Govt./Council department thinks THEIR department is more efficient than any other you are dealing with. I couldn't remember where you were but figured you weren't in England if your kids were back at school this week. Make sure you get your free prescription card too...Which reminds me
xx_Jo_xx have you claimed for free school meals for your littley?

well XOH scuppered my plans to go out friday... He turned up a couple of hours after i posted about it on here (unannounced :mad:) and dropped it on me that somethings come up so he cant have DD overnight Friday :rolleyes:
Bl00dy Typical!! Sure he has some sixth sense......
He stayed here for two hours and sorta played with DD a bit and then left
When i asked why he'd actually come round he just shrugged his shoulders?!! Hasnt packed any of his stuff or picked up any paperwork or anything like i thought might be the reason??!! I really dont understand why he just turned up out the blue for no reason at all ???
DD is being a really cranky moo too so at the moment i feel like crying!!
Ive only managed to do one washload and a quick tidy of the living room/hall floors oh and empty the kitchen bin....
