Woo hoo!

Just received a letter in the post in reply to my application for DLA.

They are putting me on High rate mobility and medium rate care.

Think I will phone them up and doublecheck as tend to get ahead of myself and think I have got something when I haven't!!!!

But, if it is true then weh-hey, I can afford to get about a bit more .... nice DWP.

I just filled out the huge booklet form and that was it.

Happy days although obviously I wish I had my old life back working and running around in stilettos! :P

    Really? I thought lentils were a universal good food. OK then, beansprouts. They are the blandest of the bland! DD

    So thrilled for you! We so rarely hear anything positive about DWP.

    Good luck too to Jordan's Mum.

    Love Tilly x
