30th September, 2021.
I’ve just had another look: and yes.
It’s raining!
Which means just one thing.
I’m going to get wet, when I pick up my meds!

You will have realised that I’m job hunting, at the moment.
Like most of us on Universal Credit, I’m getting the £20 weekly uplift to my benefits: which adds up to some eighty or so pounds a week, and that’s due to end in next week.
At least, that’s what Radio 4’s Today programme is telling me.
Apparently? There’s a grant — called the Housing Support Fund — that’s due to be started in October.
I’ve been messaging my Job Centre case worker, and Brentwood Council, AND my councillors, to see how I apply for that.
But … ?
My basic objection to that sort of thing still remains.
A large, one off grant? Is not as useful as the direct £20 uplift.
And, given this grant will be administered by my local council?
Sounds like it’ll be far more difficult to apply for.

As a final point … ?
I caught another episode of Lovecraft Country on Tuesday: and uploaded my video review, last night.
Can I suggest catching this episode?
It’s fantastic: Raiders of the Lost Ark meets Call of Cthulhu meets The Goonies only starts to describe it.
