Steady lissie! I have heard that sudden windfalls can change people. I would hate you to think you were above us all now that you are rich and famous :lol: :lol: :lol:

Oh Lissie, that really is awful isn't it. When I was doing the voluntary work for Age Concern ten years ago people were coming in then complaining about it and asking what they thought people could do with that. It hasn't gone up since then at all. Shocking.

All I can say is................"Don't spend it all at once"


:lol:

Wild living Lissie - go for it! :P :roll: :lol: :lol:

On a serious note, imagine how much they are spending in admin, just to give people such a ridiculously small amount :? :(

I've been saving mine up until I have enough to buy a buy a buggy
for when I can no longer walk. Fortunately I don't need one yet. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Personally I think it's a bit of a farce. Typical of stupid politicians.
It would make more sense to it altogether when giving all us
pensioners a decent annual increase.

Any one tell me what is the increase in salary for those wastes of space the same mob
Who bellowed at Prime Ministers Question 's today.?
Expenses, second home allowance, fuel allowance, etc etc John Lewis at their service. All
There for the asking, they look after their own do they not..25p!!!I would love to see their faces
If they were allotted this insulting amount.
