House it going?
Not done a house update for a few weeks because everything is going so well.
Not really, it's still a bit shit.
I think I may have hit the I really can't be bothered being civil with housing point right now (to be fair it has been going on since February), we've gone from them being very nice since Social Work got involved to in the last week them phoning SW (our allotted worker is on annual leave) because we hadn't rung them back straight away to now adding seemingly random policy rules to our promised move.

We seem to have gone from "we'll find you a suitable property" to "if you don't accept the first property you're offered that's it because you only get one choice" which under the circumstances seems a wee bit churlish seeing as not only had we already accepted a property that we were subsequently told we shouldn't be offered (and are snapped at when we mention it, I just love being spoken to like a child) but the fact that this whole situation is of their making.
I just put the phone down as I really can't be arsed by this point, I mean somebody make this make sense:
Housing decide if a new house is suitable for our needs but if we see it and it's not suitable they we can't be offered anything else because 'policy'.
To be fair admitting to breaching the Equality Act with a blatant case of Indirect Discrimination is a pretty bold move in anyone's books.
Saying that tho' their interpretation of the protected characteristics in the EA is quite interesting.
And completely wrong so not too sure I should be surprised if I'm honest.

Seriously at a loss of what to do.
Except scream into the void obviously.
Oh and get used to the fact that the dosage of my medication for my blood pressure has been doubled which obviously isn't related at all.
