    I know where you are coming from. I should unpack and tidy but I can't be bothered! :D

    Doesn't the Morrisons have a pharmacy counter?

    No, but Boots is next door so it's not a problem. Although I'm feeling really bad now, don't think I'll go back to Bingley. Might just go get the meds and some 'comfort' food (I noticed blueberries were on offer when I went in yesterday) and snuggle up in bed with a book, then in front of the TV. Who needs music when you've got House with his lovely blue eyes?!

    Scaredy that's awful! I guess you'll be on the phone to them asap in the morning. They did it with my IS once, but luckily I was living with dad and it was only about £8 a week. It must just be a computer error or something otherwise you'd have had a letter.

  • Ames, i think it's from when my first 6mths of contirbutions based jsa ended. I got a letter saying i was going onto income based - admittedly i don't read the letters very thouroughly, but i've been signing on still and i asked about payment when i had to miss a signing day cos i was ill and they said it went through.

  • That does sound odd Scaredy.

    Hope you can ring and sort it on Monday.

    My friend said something or rather almost said sometihng yesterday that really hurt me and it is majorly playing on my mind. She was the one a few weeks ago who implied some thing about why I am single and last time I went out with her she said something about my clothes.

    Do you know I can't think of single nice she has done/said in a long time. And I am really stuck cos 90% of the time its ok - especially when its in a group and I don't want to cause hassle.

    But still it hurts. Oh !!!!!! it. Why can't I just let it go?
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    i hope so Buffy!!

    re your 'friend' - it seems like she feels the need to put you down to make her feel better. Friends like that you are better off without. She's not really being a friend.
