Anyone want to see a baby monkey having a bath? It's really cute as long as you ignore the woman talking...

can anyone advise please?

I printed my CC voucher off but it has come out pink instead of blue! (my printer is seriously running low on ink) I reckon they'd laugh me out of the shop if I tried to use it in there!

I have just tried to use on on .com and it doesnt like it- is this because i have printed it off already?

How much chance do you think i have of using it in-store? Or do I need to contact them?

Cheers :-)

please try for attendance allowance because if your FIL has problems with personal care or night care, then he will qualify.
Once qualified for this the local social services take a dfferent view and you should be able to get a care package in place. ( I would call them as soon as the form goes in and advise them of this).
I have done this several times for elderly neighbours/relatives and it gives such peace of mind for everyone.

Didn't even know he could claim anything, he has been told its terminal and there is nothing they can do for him, (apart from paliative care) so i will look into this as you say it could pay for someone to call in when we are not there (im not home often as work away) just to keep an eye on him, and to make sure he has had his meds, and possibly give him something to eat. OH would love to give up his job to look after him but it would cripple us financially, that to some of you might sound selfish but we would be left with years of being in debt if he were to do this ( and have only in the last year got ourselves sorted, and thats because i work away from home) and i couldn't cope with that on top of having to watch him die. xx

I dont think you are being selfish at all. I am sure the last thing your FIL would want is for you both to get into debt so that you could look after him.

Try for attendance allowance. If you get turned down, try again

Sorry the news isnt better xx

I seem to remember in the small print it says that if the barcode can't be read then they just input the numbers underneath, I know that wasn't the question lol but I'm sure they could still do that if they had any issues?

I would point them to that anyway. And I'm sure coupons that were originally in colour are still OK when printed black and white, I think it's all down to the barcode and the barcode numbers.My printer's rubbish so my safecoupons never scan but they do them manually.

My stores just LOVE me....:rotfl:

Hugs to Bensonsmums, am in similar position with mum in hospital at the moment. She seems stable now, so fingers crossed no more emergencies dashes or all night vigils but now we have to face where she live when she comes out of hospital. At the moment she hasn't sat up, got out of bed without hoist or walked since Xmas day. She seems to think she can just go home, but she lives alone. She also has to be one of the most difficult patients they have ever had.

I hope you get the support you need, I thought the hospital would have arranged all this before discharge.
