27th September, 2024: Michael Gambon.
Right …
That Amazon delivery finally turned up, yesterday.
After being delayed … and me complaining as a result.
Frankly?
I’m glad I did.
I managed to get the delivery charge refunded, if nothing else.
That … ?
Should turn up on Monday.
~≈🚚≈~
Did I mention I had to attend a tribunal, yesterday?
By phone?
To see if I qualified for extra financial help.
I felt it went well enough: although, inevitably, there’s things I felt I should have mentioned … and didn’t get the chance to.
And things I tried to stress: but felt weren’t taken account of.
At any rate … ?
I was told I’d hear, by post, ‘early next week’.
With that lot out of the way?
I’d like to thank two friends — Sophie and Graham — who’ve offered advice about the process over the months.
And Carly: who’s offered both advice and encouragement.
And too Louise, on Facebook: who, in one comment, told me the results could be in, early: and be listed on the website, if that was the case.
She was right.
It seems I’ve been awarded a back-dated award.
I still — as far as I know — need to get the letter as confirmation.
And, I’m told, a call from the Department of Work and Pensions, to check on bank details.
The sooner that lot happens?
The happier I’ll be.
