The Retirement Thread

Personally no

However, since my wife has started feeling better and has started doing more herself then it appears that other opinions have surfaced

personally I would not even use conditioner
but apparently this is wrong

possibly the fact that my sense of smell is very very bad has something to do with it

I also have a very poor sense of smell, a good thing sometimes.
I use/believe in conditioner as Sue told me it keeps 'stuff' soft to touch.
Drago decided to try it on his y fronts once but the tipper truck wouldn't fit up his driveway..... so I am told.

If it is a tax rebate, I would expect the description to include HMRC, if heating allowance DWP

Ah. It has DWP in the code plus my national insurance number so probably the heating allowance then?

The rain has eased slightly at the moment. I might chance a short wander for some air as the house feels stuffy with it being so mild.

Just saw this on FB
Woman to widow......."sorry about your loss, did your husband have any last words before he passed".
Widow......."he said yes, your arse really does look big in that".

Do you get an extra £3 odd as you live north of the border?

I doubt it. That's why I'm confused. I presumed it was £200 exactly for everyone. I still haven't had a letter saying I'm getting it either.

Aha, eventually found this on the Government Scotland site.

That's what I got, I guess the extra £3.40 is because it gets colder up here. The letter says you should have "PAWHP" in the reference. The rest of it goes on about "Social Security Scotland" taking over from DWP, no idea what that is all about.

Spend the extra £3.40 wisely Mo.😁

And just when you thought you were safe...I AM BACK .
Bedding is happily spinning away.

A question for all.............
Do any of you use those additional smelly pellets or liquids which I understand are to make your bedding smell super flowery ??
I use Aldi washing powder and Aldi conditioner. I am happy with the results but the adverts to make me wonder if the extra smelly stuff helps.

stop farting in bed

You would rob me of one of life's great pleasures ??? Just what sort of person are you!!!

They’re back digging up the pavement across the road. Stone cutter and pneumatic drill. Thank God for noise cancelling earphones.
