ANOTHER one!

This time, someone complaining because they don't understand how the system works and how they have wasted £15 because you have to pay to view everything.



I am frazzled with having had to try and explain this site to so many people in one day.... :-(

Okay thanks Sylvs. OH and the GP discussed the dosage of his Parky's pills. He should really have seen the specialist in Liverpool in September but it has been postponed to October. The GP has made a slight adjustment in lieu.


There was a student in with the GP....honest to goodness, he didn't look old enough to do a paper round never mind be a studen doc. I must be getting old. :-D


Hope all goes well on Monday - you know we will be thinking about you. <3

Jonesey Report 27 Aug 2011 10:37

I believe that Fanny is away from home visiting family. Jax is often seen on the boards but not on this thread.

Cynthia

Cynthia Report 27 Aug 2011 12:19

Fans has taken little hurricane home........no doubt she will be back to annoy us soon enough.



Putting out a call for MC and LK..........Yoooooooooohooooooooooooo

Did you see my house on the agents web page ¿

Thanks Renes

Cynthia Report 27 Aug 2011 13:21

Huh. I see they've named a hurricane after you Renes!




Persie is missing as well.....mind you, weekends are funny things....



Went to a local bakery this morning and, after asking for a particular cake, I noticed that the assistant picked it up with her fingers. I immediately asked if she could use tongs.

I had a similar incident a couple of years ago in there.......I'd asked for a cake ....the assistant wiped her nose on her hand and picked my cake up with that hand. Caught on the hop, I left the shop with the cake but took it back quickly and said why. Since then, every time I have been in - which isn't that often, there is a whispered conversation and the tongs are used.

Must have been a new girl today!!!


It's the same with those who wear gloves to handle food and don't take the glove off to handle money........


Fussy but........

You will NOT believe this Cynthia but I assure you that it is true !!!

It was probably about 15 years ago now but I will never forget it as it was SO incredible.

There was a B & Q 'type' store quite close to the office where I worked - In there was a small cafe bar where you could get snacks and baked potatoes with various fillings, with salad, to take away. They were VERY nice !

I often popped in for a takeaway lunch and one day asked for my baked potato, I think with a chilli topping - the girl prepared it, put on the topping and popped it in the microwave.

When it came out, she actually put her tongue onto the top to see if it was hot enough. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I said to her - Did I really just see you do that ????

She very innocently replied that you have to make sure that it is hot right through to the centre and that is the way she always tested her children's food al home !!!!!!!!!

I couldn't believe it and insisted she did another one. BUT, on the way out, even though I felt awful doing it, I just HAD to report the incident to the Manager! - I did not want to get her into trouble, she was obviously not 'overly bright', and doing her best, but you just cannot have that sort of thing happening - she should not have been doing that job.

I am here whilst eating my lunch.

Full book of patients and so far 5 have not showen up.
I have people desparate for an early appointment who could have used those slots.
I have been working on my tree the past few days.
Finding Wests when Dad moved around a lot as he was in the army is a nightmare.

Cynthia Report 27 Aug 2011 15:54

Oh that's disgusting Dea.........yuk. I think you were right to mention it to the Manager - if it happened these days and someone was ill - it could put the business at risk couldn't it..



Hi LK......that's really frustrating. Do you have a penalty clause for those who don't turn up for a certain number of appointments?


Which Wests are you chasing...........? I've got Wests aplenty in my tree.. :-D
