Still, gotta be cheerful hey.<br /><br />Well put, Dharmabum. And it's great to see you blogging again, and on the usual excellent form. <br /><br />They have good friends, and they are good friends. They're always the first to offer to help. As far as the volunteering is concerned, it's not, for now, the sort of thing that would cause any official hackles to rise - getting involved with village events and things he can do from home on the computer (slowly, he still has constant pins and needles in his hands and hasn't got full dexterity back). His health won't permit very much for a long time. If he got to the stage of being able to do a part-time job, he'd not hesitate to say so, even at the cost of losing benefits.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00822383355869390919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-34842222123613662342011-01-30T17:35:44.978+00:002011-01-30T17:35:44.978+00:00Oh - and - info from my Rotating Lady who works fo...Oh - and - info from my Rotating Lady who works for CAB: tell Andy to be very very careful about doing voluntary work if he's going to be living on benefits - with all the new assessments around, they will find him fit for work if they find he can do voluntary work. But, I guess he'll be asking CAB for info anyway.Blue Witchhttp://blue-witch.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-82904417366665813552011-01-30T17:32:53.716+00:002011-01-30T17:32:53.716+00:00PMA, positive mental attitude.
