    I had a lovely child free weekend away from home. I relaxed at a hotel with a spa and bonded with my partner. We played tennis and had nice food at the onsite restaurant.

    I'm so sorry to all  for the late reply. I've been quite unwell for two days and didn't receive notifications. I will get back to you all ASAP. I hope everyone is having a pain-free day.

    Thank you so much for asking. I am feeling quite chirpy- which wasn't the case for last 5 days. Happy to have found this online community.

    @AlisonNetty I feel fed up pretty often, always anxious. everything and anything triggers my anxiety, even the most silly things that probably wouldn't bother someone else, I have mental and physical health problems which clash with each other. The assessor I had for PIP has made me feel a whole lot worse as well.

    Thank you for asking.

    just found this thread, what a great idea,  I hope we can all be open enough to say if we are not having the best of days, sometimes just sharing with people can make things easier

    @pcoventry is that how long you've been waiting to hear about the decision?

    hi @WF2k Made the call 16th of March -sent form off for next day special delivery and it got there on the 23rd March  - f2F at home 20th May - they got the report 7th of June and I  got the decision 3rd of July -

    I was told last Friday it could be anywhere up to the 16th of August due to the backlog. I don't think the amount I am getting is right- it's off a bit but I am not going to complain. I am hoping the letter comes through next week so I can apply for road tax and other stuff.  It's only thankful to PIP I can afford road tax - my car is £325 a year! and has been off the road for 3 months but just had an MOT so worth running for a year.

    @pcoventry my form was sent back at the beginning of December 2018, I had the assessment 4th of April 2019, it took the assessor 3 weeks to send the report to the DWP and it was only sent when the DWP requested it, I then got a text the day after to day they had gotten the report which was the 24th of April and I've been waiting since.

    I hope you hear back soon!

    I tried to learn the Highland Fling once, but 'haggis' I didn't impress anyone after being flung out.
