Hmmm …
It’s Wednesday: and possibly the day to do stuff.
Possibilities included doing some paperwork at Brentwood Library … and possibly shopping.
Oh, and definitely putting some money on the gas and electric: my cost of living payment’s gone through.
That helps!

Talking of money … ?
Which we weren’t, but there you go.
Talking of money, I’ve had to use food banks, in the past: there’s a couple in Brentwood, and, according to a news report, today … ?
A record number of people have been using them.
Additionally?
The Trussell Trust, the charity that runs many of them, has called on the Government to increase rates of Universal Credit: in line with ‘essential costs’.
Good for them.
But?

Oh, I may — or may not — have mentioned the road works going on in my street.
I now have a better idea of what’s going on.
It looks like extra cabinets for internet connections.
According to the gossip? Boxes for Virgin Media.
I can only hope those of us who use BT’s network to access the ’Net can get some traffic routed through them.
