    Yes it's hard to give what you've not got :o

    I was thinking more along the lines of I wonder if FB's will have to start reducing the days worth of food they give out so everybody can have something for 2 days, rather than a few families having food for 3 days or whatever amount they usually give, if that makes sense. xx

    I really hope not as some people have delays in benefits that go on for weeks due to UC & sanctions ect.
    'Tis just dire & lets be honest 3 days food is not hellish much.

    Lucky you:)
    The only time I have been someone bought me a knife & fork.
    Then realised that I could not fly home with it so posted it to myself.
    I may PM you to get me something if that’s ok.

    We were a bit like ships passing in the night.
    HER english wasent great & the biggest problem was she went out very early & came back very late so sometimes it was a bit noisy.
