  • I was pleased with how I handled the Jehovah's that knocked this morning.

    They showed me a leaflet of how we can all live in peace.  I told them I'd be much obliged if they could send it to Donald Trump.  One of them said, "Don't get me started", I said, "Yeah me too" and closed the door.

    A few days ago we were driving through the country roads towards Gatwick at 3am, and I had to slow down for what looked like a "weird fox." Then it turned its head and we saw that it was a massive, ginger-haired badger. I have never seen so much as a hedgehog in this country, and I'm still buzzing about it now.

    Getting nearly £1,600 back from Reigate and Banstead Council after living in a 1.5-bed cottage from 2022 to 2024 and being charged council tax for a 3-bed.

    Urge everyone to check their banding. I challenged ours just after moving in in 2022 and got a random call this afternoon checking it's the same bank account so they can put dough over.

    A word of warning, the Valuation Office can also put your property in a higher banding, if you challenge its current banding and they consider that it is too low.

    Well, yeah - if you’re in a three-bed and paying what you would for a one- or two-bed, you’re obviously getting away with it. Having said that, they backdated our credit, so they may do the same if you’re not paying enough and building up a balance owed to them. It may be best to nip it in the bud before it gets out of hand.

    Having the dressing taken off my wound this morning... My skin didn't reacted well to the dressing, and the most pain I've been in, has been from the rash created by the dressing, rather than the wound itself... But taking off that dressing felt pure bliss and whilst I'm a couple of weeks from "normality" - It already feels so liberating
