Morning all,
A long weekend in Belfast proved successful but the wallet took a big hit. £5.25 for a pint of Guinness, is it the going rate? On collecting the new passport it was not quite ready, but was being printed whilst I waited. I was told not to panic, that it would be ready. They knew we had flown in from Bristol to pick it up, big brother or what I don’t know. Nice people and helpful working through the weekend flat out. Then had a letter from the pensions service, my state pension has been authorised. By leaving it a year and not claiming for it, £10.08 a week has been added and they say if you look after the pennies, the pounds take care of themselves.
Thursday, driving to London to meet up with the surgeon to get the results of the scan, hopefully good news.
Still keeping active and it looks as though the weather is warming up.
What is everyone up to?
