We are getting letters for someone who does not live in our house. They are from the DWP (envelope has that as part of the return address in Belfast) and if you peer up inside the window on the envelope you can see Universal Credit. I've returned the last two last week, but another arrived today. I expect this one is a reminder to do something the last two wanted doing. I'll take this one to the job centre on Monday.

We get loads of mail for various previous owners, it's still coming despite me scribbling "No longer at this address" and throwing it back in the post box.

I also scribble "no thanks!" on junk mail, stuff it in the prepaid envelopes and send it back to the originators. ;)

Is it just me or is the average virus or malady hitting harder than ever? Yesterday I had a chill, felt woozy, headache, stomach cramps... Puked, then my gob felt tickly hours later so I used First Defence in case my cold came back again. Or worse.

Currently sat here with a headache that feels like it's right in the centre of my brain, not helped by wearing all the clothes last night and not being able to sleep.

Every time someone gets ill recently it seems to be a real kicker :?

Viruses evolve at a fearsome rate (compared to say people anyway). Very possible over time the effects they cause become stronger. We've been due a 'proper' flu pandemic for quite some time, maybe things build up until we get the big one...

Another letter today. Same name, DWP return address. If I shine a light through the back of the part of the envelope behind the window, I can see words like "Her Majesty's Court" and "we have given you two" and some others words like "appeal" that indicate to me that they do not bring good news.

The Job Centre is closed today, so that's a trip into town on Monday. This feels like some action may be being taken. If so, I don't want the DWP fraud team knocking on the door. So I'll try to preempt that. Anyway, I'll want an assurance that we'll be getting no more letters for that person.

Getting up early to help shoot two music videos next week.
This week coming could prove to be utterly insane.
It does mean, however, I'm not in the office. Hurrah!

Feeling like a fat greedy fecker.

Had porridge for breakfast at 0715. Took packed lunch with me to work. Had eaten sandwich, cereal bar, and pom-bears by 0830. :oops:

Documentation says firmware can be installed (in a specific order) with no downtime.
Internet says the same.

Niggling thought at the back of my head says "this is going to go horribly wrong"
