FINALLY!!!

More twists and turns than you can shake a stick at with this debacle...Last wed that woman told me it would take 1-2 days for the electronic search...So i gave them till fri lunchtime and phoned LOL...She then basically implied i was a liar and said it takes 3-5 days...She said it doesn't get done in blackpool but elsewhere...So i asked where but she refused to tell me...And the results get sent via royal mail to the office that requests it...Well pardon me but this is the technological age and as it was supposed to be urgent then surely they should have asked for the results to be faxed or emailed rather than delivered via royal mail...I phoned MP office again and got told a file had been opened and would be dealt with in due course <sigh> ...Saw welfare rights bloke but he said i was giving him too much information...All he was concerned about was that the claim was backdated to when it had run out...He did seem very keen on writing them a shitty letter as he put it...Well i need to email him now as he doesn't need to anymore...I got a call on mon but i was out and when i phoned back the woman had left for the day...So i called on tues morning...They got the record on mon and have decided to backdate the claim to when it ran out :o) I don't know what rates yet though...Dunno if it will be same as before or changed...Although both amounts backdated 23 weeks is a fair bit one is just under twice as much...IF they have lowered his Care rate then guess who will be kicking up a stink again LOLOL...The money should be in my account either by end of the week or next mon...Fingers crossed it's end of the week...Am still not happy about the missing file though or the way i was treated...It's so common down there something should and needs doing about it...And no G is NOT getting over a thousand pounds LOL...That will be put to better use than he'd do with it.

On mon i had a meeting in the morning about the Triple A team they go to...We need to decide where the group is going, what funding we can get, what the boys & girl all wish to do...We have another meeting a week on fri to discuss it more...In the afternoon i went to M's school show...I forgot to take a camera but am hoping for some pics off another couple of parents...It was fab :o) His school shows always are...They have a subject at his school called enterprise...So two of the olderlads were discussing what enterprise actually was all about...Then they were confronted by 2 people beaming in LOL...M as captain kirk and one of the other lads as an engineer...There was supposed to be a navigation officer too but poor lad is off sick...So captain kirk and scotty took them on a tour of the galaxy on the starship enterprise to see what enterprise was about...All the classes did a turn and both M, and his 3 friends had a fair bit of dialogue to remember...One of the girls in their class stood in for the lad who is ill and she did really well...It was a lot of fun and all the kids were fantastic :o) ...After the show M and me had a meeting with the bloke from the council who runs local youth committee...M wants to follow in K's footsteps and join the group and then hopefully become an MSYP as well...He's going to represent the Triple A team on the group...I think it will be really good for him and he should do well...He thinks he will manage without support but am not so sure...Am going to talk to my social worker about getting a supporter put in place.

My alerts seem to be all over the shop just now and some am getting, some am not then some come through hours after someones made an entry
