#PIP It pays for so much - cleaners at home, dog walkers, special dietary supplements and food, medication you can’t get on prescription, social care costs, energy costs, cost of living costs, jobs needing doing around the house & have to pay someone to do them, therapy

Oh this is so sad to hear :(

The Tories have been claiming that Labour knew about these billions in extra costs already. But now the OBR have weighed in and said they were only alerted to the problems last week, and cast doubt on the information they were provided to prepare their March 2024 forecast.

Exciting!

As usual, too-loud music is blaring out of my daughter's bedroom. Ever since she could make noise,she hummed then sang as soon as she could speak. She is always listening to music. I am so excited about her imminent adventures at university, but the silence will be heartbreaking.

Can anyone recommend a decent cookery book for someone off to university - tasty, cook-from-scratch, accessible recipes??
