  5. Just a head's up. A friend was in the same queue as myself for the first jab. She has today had her second. I didn't have a date for the 2nd. Basically, I rang my GP DMC Crystal Palace Road, and they assured me it wasn't the GP sending out the notification text. My friend had told me not to be fobbed off so I carried on asking, and lo and behold, the surgery sent me the booking link and I'm having it tomorrow! wee quinnie Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I was lucky enough to get my first dose of the > vaccine on 18th of February, but have not been > given a date for the 2nd vaccine.

  9. Did I do it wrong? Put in my SE22 postcode and it said 'we're not active in your area?

  11. The website for this doesn't seem to have a contact number, I'm so disappointed in the state of the toilets. I seem to remember a councillor on here promising hot water/soap in all parks, does anyone else? The conversation wasn't specifically about Belair but I really find those auto machines that dispense everything-water/soap etc are constantly breaking down, and the park deserves more. Or does anyone live nearby and can tell me the councillor name, thanks

I think the company will be open to a different day/time delivery if you explain? Or can you install a Ring type doorbell that will record them?
  14. I found a beautiful scarf today from Karavan, the eco shop. Made from recycled sari fabric. Lots to choose from
  15. DMX has also died, rather overshadowed by the prince.

I'm aware of this guy, and been approached by him. He responded to your husband as he's a man. This guy has real issues and is aggressive towards women.

  21. If you sign up to Money saving Expert they have a scheme where they tell you if you start paying over the odds and where you can save money.

  22. Tony came the same day for me and sorted my problem quickly! Friendly and down to earth, would recommend and use again for sure.

  24. https://carolinejago.com/ Caroline is excellent, and has a great manner. I was able to stop biting my nails (a life long habit) after 2 or 3 sessions. Edited to say you can get a free 15 minute consultation.
