Just got my letter saying how much Old Age Pension I will be getting

looks like it will be just over £920 every 4 weeks

which will confuse the money matters - everything else is paid monthly!

but anyway - Thanks to all the people who are still working!!!

overall I have paid enough in over the years!

MrsP is waiting for her letter to come through inviting her to apply. Her birthday is in March.
My brother got his a few weeks back and his birthday is in February.

Shame that you (may) have to pay tax on it.

Mine is over £1k/4 weeks.

The 4 weekly payment cycle is very irritating and I have to factor in a 'double month' of SP for my forward cash flow projections.

I just treat it (the 13th payment) as a "bonus". Perhaps used to it because when I worked for the Co-op years ago, they paid on a 4 week cycle too

It is paid monthly, just the Lunar month instead of the calendar month 😉

It certainly sounds like a nice drink.
Sip it very slowly at that price.

And I know.
