Good evening Scopicles and welcome @jacobbrouni.
@Beaver79 that's great your eye is healing
@durhamjaide2001 I had a go at making home made pizzas for dinner and they were tasty and very cheap to make.
@Ada it would cost a fortune to kennel the dogs. Could Mr Ada hint at payment? They are taking advantage of your kind nature, especially being your landlords.

Rant time warning
My sky bill (TV, broadband phone) is jumping from £56 to £74 in April. I rang customer services and bargained hard but no reduction can be applied. They carried over reduction from last contract and inflation is to blame. If I change anything I lose the reduction and bill would go to £87.
First time I've failed to wangle a better deal. Its a big expense but tv is a lifeline when at home so much.1 -
Hello all,
I know I have been away for ages..
Thanks @Ada for asking after me.
I have been going through a lot of overwhelm and have found it just too difficult to be in communication with people (I think it all started when I got my support worker - I am not used to having someone else in my space for 4 hours a week!).
I'm still not doing great, but I thought I would just check in. I hope everyone is doing well.3 -

I think Cinema is 11.99 (I don't know because I never pay full price) and entertainment might be 9.99 (again, don't pay that, I think I'm paying 3.99 at the moment).
I get my broadband through Now TV too, which is only £25 pm.
Depending what you want out of your phone deal, I only pay £6 a month with three and I get unlimited texts, calls and I think 4GB of data, which is enough when I am at home all the time.2 -
sorry to hear of your bill increasing @Marydoll5, shame you couldn't sort a better deal.
Hey @Autism_at_40, i hope things settle down for you, and you get used to the support worker, take care2 -
That's daylight robbery @Marydoll5.1

@Autism_at_40 great to hear from you and thanks for the tips about Now tv. Not every street is cabelled for Virgin. We are not well off here for such things and I'm in the suburbs of Belfast.
It can be hard to get used to people when you're on your own a lot. Even though I crave company I sometimes get very nervous and clam up.
@Teigr I agree and I just couldn't get them to budge which is highly unusual2 -
I hope you get a better deal somehow @Marydoll5 ,crazy how things keep going up.
Welcome back @Autism_at_403 -
Thanks @Grinchy @Beaver79 @Lou67 @Marydoll5 @Ada @Sandy_123 for all your kind comments.
I'll see if I can bob on more often :-)4 -
