* Walking in a Winter Wonderland * - It's the 2015 Christmas Chatter Thread

mrsinvisible

Good morning, sorry, not posted recently, thanks, Peppa for your good wishes. My life is manic at the moment, DD is still battling the beaurocrats, still no joy from the HB folk, but did l tell you, the other day she was on the phone to child tax credits for 1and a 1/4 hours being told 'one of our advisors will be ...etc, then suddenly it changed to 'sorry, we cannot take your call now, goodbye' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She still can't drive due to the pain in her back/legs, swollen painful feet, and foot drop, so l will have to drive her to her appointment with the surgeon at Preston (21/2 hour drive away) tomorrow. not looking forward to that, l can tell you.
On the plus side, well, l'm sure there is a plus side, at least it isn't snowing.
Right, Mrsl arms herself with a chair and a whip a la lion tamer and wakes DGS for school.

peppapig... me too.. i haven't seen much of him other than on QI lol but he was very good.

freespirit.. im not one for one liner type jokes.. dh thought he was funny on the very small amount we had watched on tv.. an hour and a half of his short jokes that didn't link together at all, joking about domestic voilence and peodophile (sp) jokes etc wasn't mine or a number watchings cup of tea.. The biggest laughs he got was when he made jokes about getting refunds.... like he expected it.

Mrs I sounds a nightmare.. i had to called child benefit office last week as the first time in over 18 yrs my child benefit hasn't gone in :S she couldn't see why in the pc but said she'd pass it on to be investigated and if they didn't contact me the money should be in the account in 9 days... today is day 7 still no money.
Hope she gets it all sorted soon and hope the dr's can help her.

The heavens just decided to open up on me... 3 miles into my walk. blah so i came home lol

Belated birthday wishes for OMO and disabledncisfan

Hope everyone is well, not really had time to do much as I've been working load of extra hours.

Thank you for the heads up on trisha Ashley books being on offer on kindle, but I'm a tree book girl so can't take advantage of that offer. Really enjoying wish upon a star between knitting and working.

MrsI I have never phoned the tax credit office regarding any changes. I just send them a letter as I'm hearing impaired and I'm not sure if they would allow someone else to speak on my behalf.

I made the slutty brownies today, mmm they are nice, though gawd knows how many calories are in them

MRSINVISIBLE oh my god, it just isnt ending for your poor DD is it?? And to have her own health worries as well as being in immense pain, sending her lots and lots of hugs, and i hope your journey goes as smooth as possible tomorrow, i wouldnt be looking forward to such a long drive either, lets hope she gets the answers she needs tomorrow

MSGIGGLEWICK oh no when they cross the line its very uncomfortable, no wonder a lot of people walked then, dont get me wrong jokes are near the knuckle but some things in life you cant make jokes of end of!!

MRSMONEYPENNY oh no that was me, i thought you had a kindle, my mistake. I do love my kindle but i really miss seeing the lovely covers i must admit, i only have the paperwhite but i think the Fire is colour so i assume they do get them
