    Good morning everyone, the dull weather seems to have lifted this morning, when it's foggy and really dull, it makes me feel worse, im happy it's lighter this morning.

    Ive been told by UC that we qualified for a cold weather payment for ยฃ25 at least its something.

    I'm sorry that some of you are feeling unwell, nasty cough cold virus doing the rounds, we have had it a few times last 3 months, we seem to keep passing it on to each other. It's really contagious and for a good while. Try to keep surfaces etc clean, I use the antibacterial floor wipes. Drink plenty of fluids and rest, hopefully you feel better soon.

    @Sandy_123 Ii know it feels like today is the first time in ages that it isn't grey and dull. It makes a big difference to my mood for the day, which is good as I have to plough through loads of washing, my eldest changed his sheets and he has loads of covers that takes 3 loads, I tried a weighted blanket but he didn't get on with it. I wouldn't mind but he then opens his windows wide and puts his fan on, lol it's something his done for years.

    Hi everyone

    @Amberpearl have you tried wearing an oodie or equivalent? They have a sale on now and you can get them half price. They are oversized hoodie lined with sherpa fleece and keep you toasty.

    I read Martin Lewis moneysavingexpert and he said to heat the person not the room and these are great. I peel mine off after half an hour as I get too warm!

    Feel better soon those of you unwell ๐Ÿ˜Š

    Afternoon everyone, feeling anxious as a guy from the council is here doing a gas safety check and I find it really difficult having people in my flat. Should be over with soon though.

    @ShadowyBramble i am the same. In my case I rent private for the time being but I hate when people are in my flat doing stuff. I could choose not to be in the room but it is much worse as I get weird feelings about them checking in my drawers etc... so I stay. Even if it is private the council ask them to check on things like. Smoke alarm etc.. I would love if nobody at all get in my place. I hate it ..

    Do they always ask for bank statements? That's an invasion of privacy

    Looking at food I bought

    We're there any trick questions

    I'm so sorry you find it difficult too, but it's nice to know it's not just me. I got through it, thankfully. Hope you're okay and are having a good evening.
