Can't believe how shit the benefits system is how am I meant to live off 62 a week it sounds alright but when you take bills, food etc out of it there's nothing left and Christmas isn't far away! Will have to get abit extra from the OH obviously but honestly how do they come up with that amount it's not liveable especially if I was on my own 😦

Oh I no its terrible I always have to ask the OH for money for birthdays and Christmas got a lot of respect for people who are single and do it on there own xx

@missashleyanne yeah we could but I don't trust to give him money 😂 he never lasts with anything but I guess that's an option could talk to him about it later maybe would be easier. Xx

Yeah i know that but it's getting a job with them hours and I want to spend time with lily-mae whilst she's still young got such a bond with her I'd hate to take her to a nursery yet. Oh really don't blame you gonna see how it goes. To be fair £105 a week is alot better than £62 a week 😂 I would be happy with thay lol x
