Blipping busy

A bit of a wet start today but it did brighten up later.
Pension frustrations:- It didn't arrive on the 10th of the month, so I phoned and they said it would be in on 18th. Still not in. A second call from me, they said it was in the back payments office and would be with me within 5 working days - 26th. I phoned a third time today to check it was coming in tomorrow. He said his previous colleagues had got it all wrong and that they had received my re-empolyent papers on 30/9 (I know I sent them before I went on holiday on 8/9). This meant that my pension would be paid 20 days after 30/9, that being paid on 28/10. He tried to reassure me that it would definitley be in but I did rant on a bit and asked for an email out lining what he had just said.
Rant over.
I took mum for a cuppa at the local garden centre. They Christmas stuff is all out and hugely reduced in size compared to previous years. 
Tom and I managed a walk up and round the Ridge in an effort to increase my fitness level. I finally finished off wallpapering the downstairs loo. Just the skirting and screen to put up and it will be finished.
I spoke to my GP on the phone to discuss increasing my blood pressure tablets. Another GP tried me on diuretics last week but they made be sick. She's a good GP and has suggested I increase one that I'm already taking.
