    Not able to read penguins at the moment as I can't work out how to highlight on my phone or tablet. In the words of Arnie, I'll be back.
    JM, is this a tea break or are you in hiding from packingy type things?

    There is also a penguin sumo game (which is not a penguin, lol!)

    No, I find the whites wreak ly hard. I'm typing blind. To read I have to copy and paste to another programme thing. Not complaining though, rather people feel safe. :)

    Thank you Codemonkey, and thank you, everyone, for sharing your stories.
    It really is a big tribute to the people on this thread, that we feel safe enough to open up! Another plus for you, WaS!

    Oh WaS, I nearly forgot! Do you feel up to posting your pics of Sir Pugliet on the beach? Did he get seaweed in his fur? :D

    This is Elsien's image that she wanted to post!

    Elsien, I only know how to post from an iPad. If you have an iPad, I'll write out the instructions. It's a bit different from a Mac, and completely different from a PC.

    You will need an account like Photobucket though, for uploading images onto, before you can post them onto the forum. It's free though, but as someone said before, ensure that all the settings are set on private, otherwise anyone will have access to your entire camera roll!

    Hiding last time. Hiding and tea break this time.

    Love the sumo penguins! xxx

  • The Sumo penguins are wonderful! I shall nag WaSp to get the beach pics off of his camera when he wakes up from his nap.

    Alert! I am not doing politics or talking about my political beliefs in the next statement! I am just in a panic!

    Now I am completely panicking about benefit cards instead of cash payments that can only pay for essentials. Ok, the Government says it wont affect disability payments, I read that with a massive YET at the end. It is dependant on the next election and might take a while but you can always rely on me to get myself into a state in advance. Why did I look at the news?! I know that I shouldn't do that. I can think of several ways that this could be terrible, not least that I couldn't get to the shops myself to buy my own food to use the thing. Someone yell stop it! at me please, catastrophising really isn't going to help, I do know this.

    Was, lots of people in receipt of disability benefits wouldn't be able to do their own shopping. There has to be provision for that :). Many are house bound, bed bound, or even bound within them selves.

    :). There are laws to make sure you and they cannot be discriminated against even by the government. :)
