    Hi everyone

    I got a wash and blow dry at hairdressers yesterday and it really put me in a good mood. A bit of self care goes a long way.

    @Teigr did you ever track down the new company to take the scaffolding away? I have this picture in my head of it now covered in fairy lights lol

    I finally got the pip form but they give me a mere 22 days or so. Need to return it by the 21st .I am rather scared. Might have no choice but doing it myself as any charity or centre will be busy. They might cut it. As I am scared to use my pip .. so I am in the need of a laptop or tablet. Might get one. The old one Is not working well..

    Will they question me on how am I spending the pip money.. they might reduce it . I am not sure really ... I am not sure. This is my first reassessment and the previous one I didn't need to go. Very concerned if they I don't spend all the pip they will stop it. Who has experience with it. Do they need proof I am using the money. Now it is a safety net. I buy better food. Sometimes renew clothes etc..... Thanks

    Hi @Schildpad I know the advice centre I use request an extension for returning pip form as there isn't enough time to get an appointment and it's always granted.

    Hope this puts your mind at ease.

    I'm quite disappointed about having no use for those awful blue lights now.

    No they ask in form do you need help with budgeting as I do I will spend it all thats part of my condition No they don't ask what you spend pip on and remember you can have thousands in bank and still claim pip I've always done for myself I just write everything from morning tonight you can get family friends to write letter explaining your illness if they support or see your struggles you can request doctors notes by asking for SARS form can go back years and it's free put your prescription in form any letters from consultants ect
