    :heartsmil When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because these weirdos are your true family.

    Hi there SoE,

    Not sure if its been mentioned, but Christians Against Poverty are worth contacting, they can help you regardless of your religious beliefs. They helped a friend of mine out brilliantly. Put your postcode in their website for your local centre. I think they do home visits too.
