We so rarely get it in my corner of south-east England. This morning, we've a real blizzard! I can't go to work because the day centre's shut with the weather.
So... I've been out and taken some photos...
11pm sitting at home watching Battlestar Galactica DVDS. And a bit of nighttime photography from my window.
Incredible how light the world is at night with lying snow.
Tomorrow it's a visit to debt advice charity. Wonder if they will cancel due to the weather.
It’s really light outside with the snow everywhere, it’s beautiful, I felt like I was on a film set, walking through the quiet streets. Why not ask them to cancel all the debt, rather than just the appointment!
Depends on the debt. And who it's to.
A year ago I managed to get a £300 bank overdraft written off. And over £400 owed to Yorkshire water was cancelled. I also successfully applied for the warm front grant for the last two winters. That's worth £280.
Now I'm trying to get the discretionary grant to top up my housing benefit.
I got a good few hundred written off by yorkshire water recently ~ aren’t they marvellous, I think mine was about £800 and I got the winter fuel thing. I also just got a brand new fridge, freezer and washer which was very nice. Best of luck with the discretionary grant.
I used to creep out early and walk through the village and across the fields and it felt wonderful being so totally alone in the world.
