    Hello all. It is still a bit too hot. In special inside the room but better.

    I have an issue. I am filing in the form on line for the transition to universal credit. But as I fill in the sections. The sections disappear. I thought it would give me the option to review every section again but apparently I can't. I need to add up stuff on the conditions I have and other bits bit i am not sure why I can not. I hope it Will it give the chance to review all the answers once I finish with the form or will I have to ask them in the journal on for permition to add up stuff.

    I don't trust them and I hate the idea of reaching them unless I have no choice. And I mean no choice. Thanks for your help

    They didn't @Albus_Scope ,we actually had no phone for three days.When we told them we wanted to keep our old number they said it would take two days to sort out.

    That was last Saturday.πŸ™„

    Good morning btw.

    It's Carnival Day here and the weather is less than ideal.

    I don't think we've ever had hedgehogs in our garden.

    Unless they're very sneaky ones.

    @Ranald yes !

    We got the caravan when my husband was recovering from major brain surgery last year. Best decision ever and less than an hours travelling from home.

    @Elvisdog that's a great photo. It's lovely having hedgehogs about.

    @Teigr hope you enjoy carnival day despite the weather.

    @Schildpad I feel your frustration. Filling in online forms can be very trying.

    It is still really windy here 24 hours later. I'm going for an ice cream this afternoon anyway πŸ˜‹

    It's dry @Marydoll5 ,but very windy.

    The procession actually sets off from our street,so I could watch most of it from my bedroom if I wanted to.

    I hope you and your husband are well.

    Hi everyone @Ranald you was right about the rain, started last night, overcast today, I can actually, turn my fan off and turn the TV volume down, I haven't been able to hear over the noise my fan makes.

    I love seeing the hedgehog I have better pictures, but I couldn't find them.

    @Schildpad My youngest son who gets LCW UC and was just told he doesn'thave to find work just prepare for work. Has started an apprenticeship, ive told UC , I spoke with a lovely lady but she didn't seem to know what we do in terms of his claim. My only reservations about the apprenticeship, is that he was told by pathways, not to tell them about his Neurodivergent's at the interview, as he would probably be overlooked, I was both upset and then angry.

    I talked to the UC helpline when I transitioned from ESA SG, I must be honest they were helpful and helped me do my claim over the phone anything I didn't know i put it in my journal , it's a hard process but it becomes more clearer as you go on.

    I wasn't to pleased when my money went down, when I.had a rent rise, any rises come off the transitional protection payment, so finally our money reaches the same as normal UC payments.

    Good luck with the transition and if you can't find the answers, give the help line a try.

    Weather is better but still is too hot in my room. I hope it gets a bit lower . The fan on for too long is not cheap.

    You keep mentioning my favourites !! God did that make me laugh reminds me of my dad lol πŸ˜†

    @Elvisdog thank you. It is done. Now I can only hope they wil not give me a hard time and also I hope I will be getting the same amount I was getting. They will call to confirm identity. Etc .

    I think if I get a job one day I won't be telling everything I have because If they know every condition I have they would never hire me.. I can not see myself ever going back to work as I have too many ailments. And not one has a cure. Maybe the mental part but I doubt it I have been sick for so long.,.. very sad .

    Gregor Fisher is a legend. You might like him in the current 'Only Child' on the BBC.

    Morning everyone ☺️ much duller here today too, rained a bit yesterday but sounds like we're getting the hot weather back in a few days time.

    Nice to see you back @Bluebell21, hope you're doing okay πŸ’›

    How was the carnival @Teigr? Our local one got cancelled this year which was a shame as like yours it goes right past our house.

    Did you manage to watch the concert @Amberpearl? How was it?
