I am not agoraphobic

 Agoraphobia


I have rarely been out of our house, on my own, in the last four years. I don't think I suffer from agoraphobia, but I don't like to feel hemmed in or trapped.
Agoraphobia is a fear of open 
spaces.
The main reason I never went out is with no car, and little money, by the time I paid for the bus fare to get somewhere I had no money to spend being on Disability Living Allowance, then PIP. PIP is short for Personal Independence Payment, another name for DLA brought about to try to convince the public that the people working in government offices are worth their pay. They closed a system which worked, and caused such a backlog of complaints they had to close some claims without a review.
Things did change last year, when my bank (Santander) changed their overdraft charges from £1 a day to a % of your overdraft; going from £30 a month to less than £10 a month made a huge change to our finances.
Now, I don't go out on my own because I am worried my ankle may collapse as my disability gets worse each day.
I have several genetic disabilities which I inherited from my mother; the most serious affects my muscles.

I am offended again

 The lady is NOT my type Though I am olde, and have standards, I am not a stic-in-the-mud, it does take someting nasty to offend me, and for the second time it has happened.  As with the first incident , the offense involved a young colored lady with larrge breasts, I have nothing againsr coloured ladies, I wasbot offended by this laady asking to see my penis as soon as we chatted, it was a little weird she was so forawrd when she'd only been chatting a few minutes to ask. What I found offensive, again, is she assumed having large reasts, and in her case an oversize bottom was what I like In short, she has nothing of interest for me..

Warhammer Limited Edition books for sale

 eBay extension Over the coming month, I hope to start selling some of my Warhammer Limited Edition books on eBay ; I did this some time ago with a little success. Many of the books are also signed, I never covered the cost I paid, my thinking is I may as well get something back as I never read the books, and there maybe someone who will read the book .
