TMI - means "Too much information" and is generally used by someone who wants to shut another person up and isnt particularly concerned how they do it.

Excuse my ignorance, but what does this mean?

Hi

Too much information.:)

I confess to being tight with money even though I could afford to be a bit more generous! I actually use a hot water bottle to keep warm on those evenings when there is a chill in the air but I don't want to keep the heating on.

You must prioritise your money-everyday household bills must come first like ,utilities and food,outstanding rent/mortgage etc.
If you have things on contract like sky or cable you can cut these services to the minimal levels without breaking contract.

I think the post you are commenting on was made in response to a post that appears to have subsequently vanished.

Yeah it was, there wass a post that just said "get a job". That was it. It might be too much info but at the end of the day its a medical condition just like anything else and not many people do talk about it becuase its related to the toilet, which is why there is a lot of stigma with it, but hey ho. Yeah, no car at mo, a lot of it at the moment is spent on public travel to and fro all the appointments for my partner, he can't go out on his own due to paranoia so I need to go with him, problem with that is due to IBS we need to get on and off bus more for pit stops. Hes having apps with community support worker, community nurse, psychiatrist, psychologist, gp, disability advisor, back to work advisor, his U.C specialist, colonoscopies......I think thats about it! lol. Infact sometimes I think we would be cheaper with a car!

You may be right about having a car! If either one of you has had a driving license for a long time, you'd probably get a relatively good deal on the car insurance too!! The only problem would be the investment in a car, because if you buy a cheap banger then you'll probably pay more in road tax due to carbon emissions, etc.

Hey kjsmith7, nah we had a 1991 mr2 before which was sold to our friend and they said we could have it back when we need it, it wasn't that high on road tax for the emissions, which was nice, classic car with lower tax. We might look into that indeed.
