Better late than never

Did not realize how long it had been since I posted on here...

Alistair has put a new demo on his "my space".. which is rather nice....

Have been busy making flowers etc for my cakes... went on Friday night to cut the Golden Wedding Cake up for my friend, tried some of course ..good to know the recipe is still coming out the same......

Have had problems trying to get a grant for cavity wall insulation for my bungalow, rang the council who said ...because I was not on benefits I could not get any help.... plus the person on the other end of the phone was rather rude, maybe I did wrong, working and paying a full stamp all my life.... then one of my friends from Alistair's site, rang her council in Bristol, and lo and behold, she can have hers done for nothing... amazing how fair our system is!!!!

Anyhow have contacted help the aged, and they were so nice and helpful, so there may be some help out there after all....all the adverts say how we must take care of the planet, but I find that there are so many pitfalls in the system, have you tried getting through to some of these people on the phone... enough of my moans...think how lucky I am, I have a quite good health (for my age) lovely family and friends, also my Oscar.... so I will look on the bright side, and know my cup is half full, not half empty...
