Latest Moan From You and Me 2024

This is why all the schools in the County are shut today. It's melting rapidly and will be gone in about half an hour. Snowmageddon is not a word that comes to mind:

 

They may have read the headlines on the internet about snow, on one of the headlines they were saying 16 inchies!!!!

 

Mmmm you know how men exaggerate...sorry couldn't resist

 

No,......... tell me about it.

 

Road tax up £30 this year, another tax that the government is increasing at the same time as saying they want to lower taxation.

 

NO...You trying to get me banned ?

 

Discovered that my GP practice is currently taking 10 to 15 working days to authorise prescriptions, despite their website stating a turn around time of 3 working days after receipt of request.
Problem is I discovered this at the pharmacy when I went to pick up prescription.
I run out Monday morning due to the practice of supplying a 28 days supply every month and refusing a repeat until at least day 21 of the 28.
If the meds are as critical as my GP says then this could be my last post, but what do they know.

 

I've been using online ordering for about 4 yrs now, it seems to work better than the local chemist, although I know you are saying the problem is with the doctors.

When I used the local chemist shop it was always hit and miss if they had received the prescription but with this system I dont get that.

 

Sounds as if "Going Postal" is the way.
"Going Postal" by Terry Pratchett excellent book.
Doesn't solve the current problem.

 

Some times the company I use has problems getting the prescription from the doctors.
I tend to be a bit sneaky.
The app has the facility to tell them how many days medication you have left, you just set this amount at less than you actually have, that way you always have more in hand than they know about and prompt you much earlier than otherwise would be.
It's just a case of adjusting the numbers a small amount at a time.

 

I've just signed up to a new North Wales Police public 'engagement' web site - where we are told about the various acts of skullduggery going on - asked to keep an eye out - and to grass up anyone who has been up to no good.

I've just scanned through the various alerts and non of them tell me where the 'alleged' incident actually took place. Fairly important bit of info. if you want Joe Public to start trawling through dash cam/CCTV footage.
