I have to say and this is verified, 0.4% of benefit claims are proven to be fraudulent. Also how many MPs and Peers fraudulently claim on their expenses?

If you receive a State Pension, it is entirely separate from any Occupational Pension and, being contribution-based, should not be reduced in anyway by income nor capital. Pension Credit, being means tested, IS affected by both income and capital.

I am so sorry to hear about Loen's diagnosis, she was always one of the more entertaining presenters. I don't get any shopping telly as none of them stream live and I now have a sky puck.

I've either never had one, or the Spam filter does its job!

You do tell a good story! Your friend is happy and I guess that is all that matters, though from what you say, she will have had one heck of a head in the morning!

Practical presents to women imply that housework is solely the woman's purview, I think.

I am Dyspraxic, not everyone who is Dyspraxic cannot drive, unfortunately I never managed it, I tried, I had 180 hours of paid instruction, but failed my test and it made me so uncomfortable to be behind the wheel I never tried again.

I remember Oriflame and Amway, I remember the whole point of the events was not so much to sell the goods as to be recruited as a sales person. Basically a legal pyramid scheme known as multl-level marketing I believe?

I had a pippa dee skirt and blouse, the blouse was fuchsia and silky and the skirt was navy and pencil shape with kick pleats on the side seams where you might normally expect a split, I had it until well after I came up here in the early 80s. Tupperware we had in abundance, my mum did wedding...

I found that if you have an over bath shower, you can fill the bath with the shower hose and get MANY more bubbles than expected!

Wouldn't you rather have a root canal filling or something?

Will you be available?

I was seven years of age when I vowed I would never marry, nor have children, so far so good. I did once imagine going to a lovely hotel, Coombe Abbey, and inviting everyone I wanted to be there to attend, hiring the entire venue for the event. I am neurodiverse, the particular type I...

It is so sad really for her, she has no insight and recognition that what may suit her or be comfortable for her may be difficult to impossible for others.

I am feeling for both of you! Knowing what it is like having grown up in a world where people hedge and avoid and not getting it. Life experience has fortunately given me a little more perspective and allowance for, shall I say, nuance. But with a condition where being in control is the only...
