Was having a good day till I saw the budget in Ireland.. 25 cent on smokes, child care allowance cut completely, children's allowance to be means tested, now 2% of my wages go to the government... for those who don't work, they will not have any benefit increase and those under 20 will only get half benefit... also, our Social insurance has increase which means we have to pay more from our wages and now have to wait longer before we can claim of it

That will happen in the UK too, to make up for the huge pension payments for the senior bank executives who got the whole world into a fooking mess.

[Abigail]

those under 20 will only get half benefit.

Is that for benefits across the board or are some, like DLA, exempt?

todays been ok. my seminar wasnt too bad, boring as usual but cos my lecturer is leaving we were his last class so he bought us all cake! shame we all still wrote really bad evaluations about him though! then cheerleading was ok, had a 2hr practise in our uniforms but it wasnt as hot as on friday so that was good. now need to write some of my article and finish my pitch for it for tomorrow

Daughter finally decided to phone home, she is not coming home until Friday. So I painted the hall tonight I'll give it a second coat tomorrow.

I've not had the best few days... I found a lump at the back of my head a while ago, thought nothing of it.. and it has got worse over the past few days so I've been in a bit of pain. I'm booking a doctors appointment tomorrow. My dad insists it is a cyst after he looked at it, but I am thinking the worst as it has got bigger and it has started to hurt a lot more - I've kept myself busy to take my mind off it.. I went to a party tonight which was nice and I'm going on an Easter egg hunt tomorrow my auntie does one every year.

It's probably a cyst or an abscess Davey. They're easily treated. Serious lumps (eg cancer) usually don't hurt.

[Perdita]

I agree with Abigail, Davey, I am sure it is a cyst and nothing to worry about. Get it checked with the doctor to put your mind at ease.
