Good Lord, what a day! I went to have a shower but a technical hitch meant I didn't get my shower today. I went to the doctors and that was an almighty and distressing muddle and achieved nothing, so I emailed the charity and told them I was not in a fit state to go and see them. They replied offering a cup of tea and saying that I had been granted the benefit that we had been struggling with.

I was amazed because we were only due to review and send in the appeal today, so how had I been granted this benefit that I was previously refused?
I went to the charity and we phoned the people who granted the benefit and got details, it is still a slight puzzle but it seems that I have genuinely won the appeal and been granted several months of back-paid benefits that I should be able to collect tomorrow.

I then found out that I could get a free bus-pass, only my doctor has to sign it, and I am in a hell of a mood with him at the moment :-/

And the bus pass will be useful, because my next stop was to meet with the lady who is offering me a shed.
She lives out of town, I met with her and she described the shed, it has electricity and a heater and a matress and a duvet and a small kettle and it sounds like she wants to make it as comfortable as possible for me :)

I will be heading there this evening.

So my day of blogging has been ruined, but at least some good came out of all the day.
