It's arrived ... and I only ordered it on Tuesday. I have not allowed myself to unwrap it as I'm really supposed to be at work. What I'm actually doing is browsing Simnel cake recipes but, hey, we Waspi women need to get our priorities right!
I've asked for it as a birthday present as my birthday is on Monday - here's hoping!
I've got my state pension now but I waited five and a half years for it. I joined WASPI because I felt I had been cheated and disregarded by the politicians. I just hope some action will be taken for those still waiting for their pensions but I doubt it.
I'm still waiting, Vronni - and I feel cheated too. I feel most sorry for those in jobs that demand a lot of standing or a long commute; I don't think I'd feel up to the hours I used to put in. Happy birthday for Monday - that would be a great present. If not, it's worth blowing the pension on a treat!
I very much want to read this but think I might have to wait for the paperback to come out!
ReplyDeleteThere will be a queue at the library for sure, Gina.
