A lovely day today!
When checking my bank account, I found my Cardiff pension had been payed in.
I had a cup of coffee at the tribunal. The Judge made it for me! I really enjoyed it as I was thirsty.

Blimey, Galen - I thought you were someone else in disguise then! grin

Galen Thu 29-Aug-13 19:19:34

I never go in disguise.
If I did, no one would know who I was!
So why should I go in disguise?

Ana Thu 29-Aug-13 19:20:55

I was joking....hmm Cardiff/London pension?

My next door neighbour needed the plaster on her wrist changed today.
She shared my taxi to work.
I think she liked having a lift.

I went for a walk today. I didn't take my cat. She doesn't like the lead. I met my neighbour. My neighbour said she missed taking her dog for a walk. Her dog died last year.

galen

I am concerned that you were bought a cup of tea by the Judge.

Is he trying to affect your impartiality?

Will he set it against income tax.

Do the rate payers of Cardiff know about this?

grin Galen !

Nelliemoser Thu 29-Aug-13 20:08:27

Wait until Gracesmum sees this. grin

Galen Thu 29-Aug-13 20:09:34

I don't drink tea. My judge made, not bought a cup of coffee.
She is very nice!
I like her!
She makes me a coffee when I arrive!
I am very bad tempered until I get a cup of coffee.

I hope you have properly invested your pension Galen

Galen Thu 29-Aug-13 20:34:19

My financial adviser makes sure I put money in my SIP and ISA.
Is there anything else I should be doing?
I am a confused old lady!sad

MiceElf you little minx, you! grin wink

Be careful, Galen - there are lots of men out there on the lookout for rich widows. They will have half your house before you know it.

Nelliemoser Thu 29-Aug-13 20:40:51

Galen You had better get some assistance and advice. I know of someone in the Midlands!

Galen Thu 29-Aug-13 20:57:19

I left the midlands 35 years ago!
I lived there for 33 years
I think it is better down here
I do not wish to go back to the midlands
I have a very nice 4 bedroomed house here!
It is not detached, but I like it!
It is mine.
I'm worried, in case I have to sell itconfused
What should I do?
