I'm new on here today, so just popping by to say hello!

Hello everyone. I am a 61 year old female waiting patiently for my state pension to start. As you may have gathered I am one of thousands of women whom this government/previous government decided to change the rules without ensuring all of us were notified by post. I have three grown up children and 4 grandchildren. I am interested in gardening, reading, yoga and having the odd night out with family and friends. I am married, 43 years and counting ! I hope I soon get the hang of this forum. I am going to have a look around and see what everyone is chatting about.

Hello Ifiknewthen, and welcome. I, too, am one of the unfortunate 'thousands of women' who has had the state pension rug pulled from under my feet without being notified. I'm 60 and have two grown up children and two grandchildren, and have been happily divorced for quite a few years now.
