'To Shirley,
I've checked about the Community Care Grant now.
And that form is on 36 pages.
And I think it's a bit embarrasing, to apply for a grant like that.
So I thought I'd just buy a portable washing machine.
Even if I lived at a hostel, before I moved in here, I had a computer from before and I bought a new grill-microwave there.
And here I've bought a good mattress and some budget furniture.
I think it's a bit degrading recieveing community care.
It's like I've been on an institution, or something.
And I also think it's going to take a while to get that application processed.
While I'm a bit sick of hand-washing my clothes, so I think I'm going to order a portable washing-machine, when I get my job-seekers allowance, on Tuesday.
And then I really have everything I need.
I can just buy more furniture later, if I need it, I thought.
This is how I've planned it.
I haven't been under care, and I'm not being resettled, so I think it's a bit embarrasing with this Community Care Grant.
So I thought I'd try to get by on my jobseekers-allowance.
Hope this is alright!
Yours sincerely,
Erik Ribsskog'
