    From your reply, and previous responses to me, then, I can only assume, added to your overt misogyny, that you have no experience with either DWP benefits or women. :eek:

    Perhaps a harmless chat room might be better than this forum for you? :think:

    I would also say that I never give advice in any sort of official capacity.

    Lin

    Now you are accusing me of misogyny. That is out of order. I'm deeply offended.

    Contrary to what you might believe, due to my exceptional good looks and charms, I have had a lot of experience with women, who I deeply respect.

    I simply fail to understand why you and some others have to get personal and why my experience matters. As long as I've given information backed by official websites, it should not matter.

    It has to be declared. It cannot be given without telling.
    no one has disputed this. However, you have repeatedly stated that once it's been declaired any money recieved WILL be deducted from benefits.
    I'm not an AE I'm just an idiot who forgot to update email details, went away for a bit and then tried to come back after the old laptop died :o:rotfl:
