If they are filing on line, once the "computer" has accepted the figures then they can go into the account & have it paid into the account direct & it does take 5 days. If you ask for it by cheque it takes about 5 weeks. Last year my son got his within 5 days but my mothers took 6 weeks by cheque.

Thanks Badmemory, you're a font of knowledge . It's exciting to think we may have it within a week :T.

Our meal cooked on the hob tonight was a tin of pinto beans, frozen broccoli and cauliflower florets, and tinned tomatoes, simmered in a jar of Mr T marscapone sauce and served on brown rice. DH, DS1 and I all enjoyed it. DS2 hasn't eaten his yet but he said he liked last night's meal .

DH has also printed out some lovely photos of my mum that I wanted to put in frames (it's only taken him six months!) and I'm delighted with them as they remind me of happy times we had together. I bought some good frames to put them in after she died and now finally I can look at the photos of her from where I sit and remember her .

That's really lovely:heart2:
Looking at the photos will make you sad and joyful and nostalgic and melancholy and occasionally just catch your breath for a moment - all these things: we are privileged to have known such love.

Photos I inherited from my Aunt include one of my parents on their wedding day and one of her as bridesmaid. Not only are they wonderful in themselves, but it also reminds me that they had a life BEFORE my brother & myself !!

Good news on tax rebate HHOD. Both DH and I have received one each after moving from salary to pension over the last few years. We both claimed online and it took around a week. It went straight into our account.

Just had a quick catch-up and saw the fantastic news about the tax rebate, HH:j:T:dance:_party_. No wonder you and DH are so delighted. I'm thrilled on your behalf:)


I remember from your past posts that you were doubtful that you'd get a tax rebate but now you have:j. You're also doubtful that you'll get any PPI refunds and it just goes to show that these sort of things are totally possible. Once you've come back down to earth;), go for it!


Good things are starting to come your way now, the tax rebate, DH finally printing off your photos and I'm sure there are others but it's late and I'm a bit dopey. Here's to the momentum keeping going:beer:
