Off to the radio station soon. Ikve heard that there have been negotiations to move to somewhere more central. All I can say ATM is it may be near Morrisons. There could be a building available for our use in that area.

Apart from another successful radio show I knackered my Kindle and smaller laptop. When I got off the bus I had a can of energy drink which I put at the top of my bag. When I got to the station I found that some of the contents of the can had spilled out de-enrtgising both things. Was hoping they might work after drying out. No luck yet.

One of the weirder days in my world. Discovered dating sites a few years back, post divorce. Had a date tonight. Been there 20 minutes when my last partner, (of the dating site variety, not the ex-wife variety), decided to drop in and join us !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Apparently, didn't take rejection well so went through my phone and spoke to the lass from tonight, (yes I know - there shouldn't have been an overlap),  before I got there as a set-up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was right up there with minor operations as an event to remember.

Still no luck with my laptop or Kindle. I thought they may work if dried out. Can they be saved? would the hard drives be beyond help?

More money to pay out. My PC needs doing no backdated P Credit. What next?

 

Thought my laptop had resurrected itself earlier. Turned itself on, I logged on the desktop loaded then it died again.

I'm gonna rename it Jesus'

Had a right game this morning. Received a letter this morning from the DWP that they have noticed I had a PPP I didn't know about it or that it would affect it. Found out it was one I had a few years back which I stopped payments on reason being it was a smallish amount and what I needed to pay was too much for me. Anyway The DWP wants details of I receive from it.


So I phoned the insurance people up and they found my details and started to go on about unity and equity and reinvesting and I could invest it elsewhere I said they sound great but my only income is from a 5 hour job. So they are sending figures for a lump sum 25% plus rest in pension and increasing and level pension. Well what ever I do my income will be the same because my Pension Credit is means tested and I can only get a set amount.


Then recalled DWP because I was worried about the timescale. They want info by 21 Sept. But they said I was going to receive a payment on Tuesday which will include the missed weeks from July and when I send the details of the PP income it will be reassessed.


Now the thing is do I take it all (10k plus less tax) or 25%  and get some every month. An holiday would be nice if I would not be tempted to blow the lot.


The lump sum would be nice but at some point it will go below the max amount I can have in savings and it won't last forever. Taking the smaller amount I may be able to get state pension on top when 65 but it will only be a small amount.


So bad and good news really. Being paid means I can spend more time looking at the options.
