    Actually, pooky needs to start claiming Carer's Allowance NOW to lose out on payment should the DLA take a while to decide.
    Don't worry, you won't be paid CA before you've been awarded DLA.

    Tea, Norfolk is only really on the radar if me and Mr Sunday both decide to enter (he particularly wants to do Norfolk - I'm happy to do any half as long as I have plenty of time to train), but as things are rather frosty, we may well not be speaking by then in any case. :rotfl:

    Pooky, good news about the GP, that is one thing at least. :grouphug:

    SRM, I think your blood type is in demand because it can be given to anyone, no matter what their blood type. So definitely worth giving blood if you are able to. :T
