Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 18th January, 2018

Right, that’s that done with!

I’ve now, officially, had my electrical safety check done.

The electrician — with possibly the biggest beard I’ve seen — came in ten: and had finished by about eleven.

And, along with the test?

Installed another new smoke detector, and a new bathroom light: apparently, the one I had?

Wasn’t water proof.

Either way?

That’s that done for another five years …

~≈§≈~

On other fronts?

The past couple of years, I’ve been receiving a certain amount of Universal Credit.

Which is useful, as it helps pay towards the rent.

It’s also variable: if you get more pay in a given month, you get less Universal Credit.

It’s now — as a result of the surge in pay over Christmas — been cancelled.

Which is a bit of a git.

As it means I know have to re-apply, if I want to get the benefit!

Life’s a gas.   Possibly one that smells of rotten eggs …
