HAPPY PIGLET

 WEDNESDAY - Took Guy to the jobcentre so his claim could be paid in to my bank account he does not have a live bank account it got close down .Forgot how depressing these places are even more so these days it was a fairly straight forward process within ten minutes I had £400 paid in to my account .I transferred it in to my daughters account so she can get him money out and pay for the things he my need.

It was nice to drive home see the greenery and fields with sheep and lambs reset my head last two days have been mega stressful but so far so good .Hopefully Guy is happy as a piglet in a field with its sibling his life overnight has improved immensely mainly thanks to his sister but others have been involved along the way .
