How many other countries have unarmed officers running towards knife wielding killers. British Police really are quite remarkable when you stop to think about that.

A small informal group of women begin a
savings club. They meet regularly... by saving small amounts together at the same time they build trust and a culture
of savings. When they meet they share
their problems...If someone is missing they get in
touch to make sure they are okay.

Sometimes we reframe memories to make them look prettier. But in trying to make things better by bid writing you make us dig up the graves of forgotten pain as if our poverty isn't enough. I put down the form and try to rebuild.... again. #poverty as commodity

Ok slightly paranoid...don't use public transport stay safe stay alert. But we will be opening up all Primark shops next week. It's a bleeding cull on the working classes. I include myself in this. That's if I could fit in anything there. No MPs in parliament though!!!
Finally finished for the day. Another 8 families seen too with a shop with a few goodies thrown in from Marks and Spencer donations. Stay in guys
8 food parcels dropped off (including buying a sack of dog food) then dropped another 12 parcels with 2 smaller hubs to distribute!
