How horrendous for this woman I hope they can get some helpful cctv footage from nearby

Called Tessa Jowell GP Surgery today after failing to get two repeat prescriptions from the pharmacy. When I asked the pharmacy, I was told that they had been requested but not sent by the surgery. After speaking to the surgery I was told that those two items were no longer on my repeat prescriptions. I was told I would need a prescription review. Earliest date would be the 22 September. That is utterly ridiculous. Surely someone from the surgery should have contacted me to tell me this after requesting the repeat prescriptions two weeks ago. Also, apparently, there is no point sending an email regarding prescriptions as they are not actioned nor replied to as I have discovered.

Try posting in the Family Room discussion as well and have a look around the Bellenden Road area as you’ve got a choice of ED station and Peckham Rye station for transport plus Denmark Hill just up the hill

Can you explain why some residents would be made homeless if they are building more accommodation?

Hate people who let off loud fireworks. We had neighbours two doors down who used to let off the extremely loud fireworks in their back garden. This was usually, but not always, on the days around Guy Fawkes and New Year’s. It was torture. I felt as if I was in the middle of them and it seemed as if they were directly outside our windows. I often involuntarily screamed as they were so loud and startling. The dog was petrified and I was worried they would crash into the house or garden. Thankfully they’ve moved and taken their firework obsession with them. I know someone whose dog collapsed and died during a bout of neighbourly fireworks. Many dogs and cats go missing during firework season due to trying to escape from them.

Wouldn’t it be easier to donate to local charity shops?

The OP said in her post that the bakery in Nunhead said they didn’t sell items with fresh cream.

Try Bunhead Bakery in Herne Hill. I’ve seen items with whipped cream on them. They have an Instagram account which also displays photos of cream topped goods.

Yes, unfortunately there are catchment areas for surgeries. Have a look on The Gardens website.

Unfortunately I am one street away from the boundary of The Gardens surgery. Their system sounds too logical for the TJ practice.

You can get dog poo bags from the libraries in Southwark. I don’t know if other boroughs offer the same.

Have you tried Carlton Jefferson?

No, it hasn’t improved. How often and how are they assessed? Every time I’ve had an interaction with them, I am sent a message on the NHS App asking to rate my experience.

Hard to believe there’s only one doctor ‘available’ each day. I wonder what they are available for. Actually seeing patients? Dealing with patient phone calls? Signing prescriptions? I do know that they often give over the phone calls to pharmacists, paramedics or nurse practioners.

Was told yesterday that it’s up to ten days to get a routine telephone appt. They have only three salaried GPs. The rest are locums.

Somebody might want them if you offer them on here or somewhere like Gumtree.

Please name the agent and the company. So sorry this happened to you. You could also refuse to pay the commission.

Thank you.

Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.

Can you please post a link to the street directory? Is it difficult to navigate? I’ve got a few different streets to look up.

Is Library still closed?

Perhaps the toilet(s) can’t be used.
