Dont get defensive, I said sorry at the end of my post as I knew it sounded harsh. If thats the way you want to do it then thats fine for you, all I am saying is that if I was able to get benefits of some sort to make my life a little bit easier, I would take them with open armsThe two best things I have done with my life

You might not want to be on benefits but if you are entitled to it then why suffer and have no money?
If I was entitled to something I would definitely take it - my post was saying that I pay over £6k a year in Tax and NI but when I'm low on money because I am contributing to mankind's survival I get nothing back!A very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea

You do realise WTC and TC are benefits and you seem to happily take them so your stance on other 'benefits' to which you may be entitled reads a bit strange to some people who are struggling and would be glad of extra money.0 -
yes csh but if i could have a job tomorrow that meant never being on them i would take it no question about it x
Still searching .....:)

I'll not carry on with this as it will just turn into a big rant, but I have been there with having to pay back money, but that doesnt happen with every single claim, and if you check and double check every figure thats there and keep records of everything, even if they do make a mistake and you can show its not your fault, then you wouldnt have to pay it back.
Anyway, as I say, I am not going to go on as it is a bad subject .....The two best things I have done with my life

What time will your train get in and which station?
Tell me it gets there 10minutes earlier than it does - I might be on time then
Knew there was a reason I didn't put the car seat in the boot
ooooooooooooo What job you got?? Be cryptic!
I've got nothing until next Monday - 5 frozen food shops!
Is sling meet 10am? I can get the train into Central and be there for 9.30 if that's ok? I don't mind waiting around though if that's a bit early
The jobs ordering something online for store pick-up, I forgot I'd even signed up as it was months ago but when I was clearing my junk emails noticed it and there was a very local job. I may have to pick your brains about MS'ing on Wed though.
Fritha won't be happy, one of the slings she wanted to try hasn't been delivered yet! :rotfl:Belly Monkey arrived 19.11.09 :j0
