Philip (Phil) England

Had my award letter from DWP on Saturday, higher rate for my PIP on both. It has been a struggle. Got to say am not happy at the moment. Yes its good I am getting the help I need from the DWP and from the doctors and hospitals, but I would rather not need it. I'm sick of taking medication and hand outs. I would rather be working, rather be living a normal life than just being stuck in or reliant on help from friends and others, reliant on hand outs from the DWP and government. It really drags me down sometimes. I guess you could say I am sick of my existence at the moment, and its really getting to me

Had my PIP backdated, so decided to order a new mattress.... https://www.wowcher.co.uk/deal/swansea/9594240/13-zone-gel-memory-mattress?ito=wowcher_email_SHARE_SHARE_9594240 #mattress #health #benefit #backpain

Here is today's video blog - https://youtu.be/GOs_mWoECkE Still full of aches and pains, the morphine patches I am on are just taking the edge off the pain, nothing more. Got to learn to live with my problems, they won't be going anywhere.

Not been a good few days for me at all. Been to see my doctor today, been put on morphine patches, so fingers crossed. Had some ideas and tips from friends that may help, so looking in to those.

Link to my latest video blog https://youtu.be/-n3YmTckYTk Had my new smart meters installed today. No more worrying about topping up when away or unable to get out of the flat. I can still top up at the shop, which I will keep doing as much as I can, but I have options!. Have you got a smart meter? Has it changed your energy usage? Has it helped in your daily life? #spondylitis #energy #saving #Boost #Ovo #swalec #westernpower #Swansea #Abertawe #PIP #DWP

Today at the Wales Airshow, I managed to get down to the Civic Centre with Ami and her son Frankie. Sat on the steps and watched the seaguls and a few dots in the distance - planes apparently! #Swansea50 #Abertawe50 #Swansea #Abertawe #SwanseaBay #BaeSwansea Enjoy View it at https://youtu.be/3vborp-laDs #Swansea50 #Abertawe50 #Swansea #Abertawe #SwanseaBay #Abertawe

Well I made it up to the top of Kilvey Hill in Swansea, took a while though, but was offered a lift... on the way back down just 50 yards or so from my flat! Red Arrows were the best bits I could capture from Kilvey Hill, hope you enjoy watching https://youtu.be/GCjUJrfJlwk #KilveyHill #WalesAirshow #Swansea50 #Abertawe50 #Swansea #Abertawe #EastSide #StThomas #Bonymaen
