Just got back from a short break on a holiday park on lake windermere. I noticed they had lodges for sale and this one caught my eye. Just who can afford that. Also site fees at this park are £10000 per annum. Maybe I'll try the lottery this weekend.

My Bolognese dog at the groomers last week.

My dog Kenzi wishes everyone on this media platform a very happy christmas.

Kenzi is getting ready for his daily walk. It's a bit chilly at the moment.

Kenzi is getting in the mood.

🎵"The nights are colder now
Maybe I should close the door
And anyway, the snow has covered all your footsteps
And I can follow you no more
The fire still burns at night
My memories are warm and clear
But everybody knows it's hard to be alone
At this time of year........"🎵

MPs to review pensioner poverty after winter fuel payment cut Sir Keir Starmer remained insistent the cut needed to happen to help fund the £22bn black hole he says was left by the Conservative government.

MPs have launched a review into pensioner poverty after the government admitted the cut to winter fuel payments could force 100,000 people into poverty

Surely this is exactly the sort of review which should have taken place before MP’s were asked to vote?

We had our first Christmas card through the post today. Has anyone else had one yet?

Don't forget to feed the birds during this cold spell. (unfrozen water as well)

Wednesday 27 November 2024 is National Energy Action's Fuel Poverty Awareness Day (FPAD). Six million households are in fuel poverty, with a growing mountain of debt putting pressure on those least able to afford it.

I’m now hitting @bsky.app each morning before all others and spending a lot more time here. We’ve had other social media platforms come along over the past couple of years but nothing I’ve seen is changing habits as quickly as this one. In just 7 days it’s become my go to first platform for news

Good morning Bluesky! Good morning World! 💕

🎵"Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memories so clear
Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be
That you are my
Forever love
And you are watching over me
From up above......."🎵

Oh, you "heard" there was a secret chord that David played and it pleased the Lord? Cite your sources, bro. This is how misinformation spreads

Pensions: Women get 35% less than men due to care responsibilities Taking time off or working part-time means less money can be saved in pensions for retirement.

Pensions: Women get 35% less than men due to care responsibilities

And about 35% of 65+ households are lone women, who have, historically, earned less; contributed less to pensions due to career breaks for childcare; have seen their state retirement age raised twice in 10 years; been unpaid carers; and have generally being shat on by successive governments.
