One of the best facts in the world: "Lord" is from Old English hlaf-weard ≈ "loaf-ward," or roughly "bread guardian," because it first meant the head of a household (akin to "bread winner" today). This means that the UK House of Lords is, in fact, the House of Bread Guardians.

In September I had word from #SocialSecurityScotland that my mother would be transferring to the Scots version of #AttendanceAllowance
This was because I had POA for her and they were using my address.
Advised she was in England, and told it was dealt with.
Yesterday I get a letter about transfer.

If you’re of pension age or have an older relative who needs help to live independently, claim *attendance allowance*. It’s not means tested, it doesn’t make you a scrounger, it might save you ending up in hospital and it can take some pressure off friends & family who help you
