Oh how frustrating!  I hope you get the payment though and well done for sorting the tax credits.

Good news on WTC frog.
Good vibes for the self isolation grant.

Well done on the WTC frog. Bureaucratic frogs are the worst!

You are nearly free

Good work on Frog eating, not good news on the isolation thing though. 

As for the chocolate - you're surviving a pandemic for goodness sake - I'd say that's the sort of achievement that means if a bit of chocolate is the worst thing that's happened, you're doing OK!

Oh my days, @HairyHandofDartmoor - this is getting ridiculous. It just shows how people can be completely symptomless while still infected. Really hope you see that negative result soon.

Thanks EH . It's lucky I don't drink is all I can say!

Hi HH, how are your tests going? Any news on the isolation grant?

Not long to go now x

Well I have finally tested negative today on Day 11 🎉🎉🎉. I was beginning to think it would never happen. I'm going to emerge from isolation tomorrow so I can be positive I'm not infectious. This has certainly been a very frustating 11 days of my life 😣. 

My tutor has left her job unfortunately, but my new tutor rang me on Wednesday evening and was very nice. She agreed to send me a new assignment to do during my isolation and I spent five hours working on it yesterday and three hours finishing it off today. I'm four weeks ahead now 😇 so I hopefully should be able to do my next two assignments during half term rather than trying to cram them into weekends. Doing two assignments has been a good use of my isolation time anyway.

Apart from that I haven't done much today apart from read my book and talk to my sister on the phone for an hour and a half. I'm looking forward to being free tomorrow and I hope that after two jabs, a booster and an infection I now have super immunity 🤣😂.

Thanks Cherry 😊. I'm finally negative 🎉!

We haven't applied for the grant yet as DH is busy working and I can't leave my room to gather the information needed. But I hope we'll be able to do it soon. We have 30 days left to apply for it luckily, but I hope it won't take us that long!
