Well I have had contact from DWP. They have granted my appeal and admitted that I am disabled and should have been on support allowance for the last year. However I will have to wait at least 2 months for the money they owe me. Well at least I have a lump sum to look forward to. I only need to decide how to spend it.
I went to watch Fast and Furious 6 on Friday and it has to be the best one yet. I really love fast cars even though that is partly the reason I now struggle to walk.
I have been trying to think all weekend of ways that I can help Michelle at Fightback. she is trying very hard to provide a pro bono service to help people claim their rights and as most of the ones she helps are fighting for benefits, they have very little money. Her savings have now gone and without support, she will no longer be in a position to offer free assistance to anyone. It really is a worry, because she provides such a valuable service. Will have to ponder on this for a while longer.
I had my hanging baskets delivered last week. I have decided that because of our fickle weather, it isn't worth putting real flowers in the baskets any longer. They only last a couple of weeks,so I have got 2 made with silk flowers. They are beautiful and I think they will look lovely at the front of my property. That is if none of the idiots decide they like them and steal them. It is always a worry. I like to see my garden looking nice, but sometimes jealousy overcomes others and my plants disappear. I planted some Evening Primrose seeds a short while ago and I really hope they will come up. However they are not a native plant and may struggle with our non summer months.
Just had a thought. Now that DWP have officially categorised me as seriously disabled, does that mean I am no longer and LTB (lazy thieving bastard)? If it does, then will I need to change the name of my blog? Ah well I'll leave it for now because there are still many people think everyone on benefits is faking it. I hope they are never in a position that they may need help. They should walk a mile in my shoes to find out how difficult life can be.
Have a good day. Will talk again soon.
