I recieved a letter this week from the dwp telling me that as I am 80 this week, my pension is going up.........wait for it......... by 25p a week, oohhhh what shall I spend it on? A cruise perhaps? ok 25p is 25p but what an insult.......it equates to £13 a year!! For me it means diddly squat, to others in a less fortunate position it means they have 25p a week to put towards their sky high fuel or food bill.......When I am shopping I will spend the cash on something for the food bank,,,,,,,might get a couple of tins of beans for 2 weeks 25p!!
Fine morning, washer on with a white load will be followed by a coloured load tomorrow, the forecast is ok for the next couple of days.
I need to flick the dust and put the GTec on the carpets this morning as well, cleaner is here next week. I also need to ring the ironing lady to collect the bed linen.
The garden is beginning to die back, so it will soon be time to empty pots and do an audit, there are a lot of small pots that can go either to the bin or for someone who needs a lot of pots.
Supper tonight will be frittata and salad, we have half the apple crumble to finish off.
