Day 79: Tuesday 28th May

Back from what was mainly a lovely 4 days in Wales. The weather was beautiful for most of the time, until a wind from Hades blew in, gave us sandstorms, freezing extremities, a horizontal toilet tent, and a decision to come home a day early.

From this.....

... to this...

... and down it had to come....

Plenty of sandy fun though, and with the aid of a couple of Nordic Poles (not a euphemism!) all was well. 

Back to normality with bump.

Housing Benefit comes in. 

That lovely feeling when you see that the overdraft is

almost clear, and with a little more frugality on the

home front, will be back to zero. 

So near, yet so far...

Then, in comes a bill from solicitor, needing to be 

paid, consisting mainly of itemised attempts to get

any kind of response from the other side, to no avail.

Out goes all of the Housing Benefit, just before rent 

day, praise to the lord of sick jokes.

Load of old arse.
