Helloooooo! just popped by to say Hi. Having a tough time chez ginny so not got the energy to go online much. The DWP have decided we dont need much money or a motability car from next month so trying to get everything in place for being home all winter with no transport :mad::mad::mad: I am fighting it and have the support of Sir Gerald Kaufman so we will see if I succeed. Meanwhile hubby is very low and his condition has deteriorated since the intitial interview (interrogation)

Oh Jinny I'm so sorry you are being put through this unnecessary stress. Hopefully everything will be sorted out and the dictators will realise they are soooo wrong to put you both through this and the decision will be reversed.SPC~12 ot 124

Jinny I am so very sad to hear your news about DWP. Wishing you every success with your appeal.
I am awaiting to be transferred from DWP to PIP and I am dreading it.
Lovely to hear about your vintage Knits - knitting I find is so therapeutic xxAs a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or

Hope plan B is that they see sense and stop giving you stuff to stress over.
I love Christmas and have been getting ready for a while, I'm making DGS a cross stitched stocking for his first Christmas, so I've had to get organised on that or it won't be finished in time, and I'm knitting Christmassy baby bits for neighbour's expected Christmas grandchild. Plus shoe boxes to sort out and fill. Going over mums next week so ideally would like to have hers bros and sisters gifts all wrapped and ready to take then so they can be stashed at mums instead of here as she lives nearer to them and they Christmas at hers.
Hope everyone is well.
Kathy I hope everything is well with you and your I think of you all often.SPC~12 ot 124

Of course we will not ban you Ginny when you are making things for Christmas you need to start early.
I have cancelled Christmas for us for the time being as we have been given notice a couple of days ago to be out of our house by 31st December. I am sure the agents have always closed between Christmas and new year so I expect they will in reality expect us to be out before Christmas. Last night I saw a housing association we have our names down with have a nice flat just three streets away. I have put in a bid for it as it is so near and much less rent.0 -
Oh nursemagggie, I do hope you get the flat you have your eye on.SPC~12 ot 124
