    @Albus_Scope

    I had pig's cheek (like very soft pork) in cider sauce to start
    Then had duck for main
    And banoffee waffle sundae for pudding

    It's still cold @Lou67,but I didn't need my gloves this morning.

    Just as well mind because I have no idea where they are.

    I have the same problem @Ada I'm terrible at having 'proper' meals and tend to just graze when the mood takes me, then have a decent meal in the evening. I usually have to force myself to eat lunch. When I remember anyway. :D

    I used to eat snacks in the day and then struggled to eat a proper meal in the evening, but now I don't eat all day and only have one meal in the evening as I have a lot of weight to lose. I really enjoy the evening meals now.

    @66Mustang I know I'm a massive hypocrite for saying this, but regular meals are important, especially if you're wanting to lose weight. It's all about balance. :)

    Hey there @Darryl1854 how're you on this frosty day?

    @Albus_Scope I realise that and have tried eating regular meals and found it didn't work for me, so I found something that did work. Once I reach an ideal weight and no longer require a calorie deficit I do intend to go back onto regular, but still healthy, meals. :)

    Thats interesting to know @Ada, thanks for sharing.

    While dieting, I am making sure to take a (decent) vitamin tablet each day, I don't know what good it does, and I know you shouldn't take tablets instead of food, but I guess it can't harm taking it alongside food?

    Afternoon my friends I hope yous are all doing good thanks for your messages earlier. 😊

    Well went to my appointment and he told me that he can’t help as he  sits in Westminster not Scottish Parliament. And doesn’t deal with housing issues.🤦‍♀️

    He brought me a big bundle with a complaints form for the Ombudsman and sd I should contact Citezan Advice. I phoned them they aren’t taking any new cases on just now. 
    So I’m searching online to see if there are any solicitors that deal with this kind off thing.

    ❤️

    @Lou67 I hope you get somewhere but I have some experience taking an issue to my MP and he asked in House of Commons about my question and was just given a standard answer almost like a copy and pasted answer if you know what I mean.

    @66Mustang
    Hi sorry I meant the MP can’t help anyway so has told me to try a lawyer or citizen advice. And he gave me a pack with a big firm to ask the Ombudsman to look at the complaint. But I need help with it.
    I feel I’m getting nowhere with it, just feeling totally deflated with it.

    That's disappointing @Lou67 have you been in touch with the housing to see what there next step is and when

    @Beaver79
    Thanks yes  I will need to look into who the MP is that deals with this, the one I went to this morning sits in my area but sd as he sits in Westminster and not the Scottish parliament he can’t help. 

    I have put stage 1 & then stage 2 complaint into housing the next step is the ombudsman unless I get help from the housing MP.

    @Ada
    Thank you nothing is ever straight forward, I’m not looking for a big pay out from them I only want my home back to the condition it was before it was damaged.

    @Sandy_123
    Hi they sd they are willing to give me some vouchers to get paint, but not willing to get it painted for me. 
    My Blinds and sofa and other things are all soiled to.
    Last year when this damage first happened in my living room and they were supposed to have dealt with the loft.They sent someone out to paint it. 
    But sd not willing to do it this time even though my full house is all damaged. But they have accepted responsibility in an email so that’s a good thing.

    How are you doing.  ❤️

    Yeah maybe a solicitor is a good idea one of those no win no fee ones maybe @Lou67

    I think they over complicate these things on purpose @Lou67.

    The idea being that we lose the will to live a third of the way through the process.

    @Ada
    No I don’t think I’ve ever saw it Ada. 

    @Teigr
    Oh yes definitely I totally agree.
