Hi

It's a bit of a long shot, but was wondering if anyone fancied travelling around SE Asia maybe around August/Sept time? I have been thinking about this for a few months now. I posted a while back as at the time I was looking into group holidays (explore etc...) but thought I'd post on here for some travel buddies and see if there was any interest.

Basically my friends have either done the whole SE Asia thing and others are not up for it this year. So, hence my posting...


About me: professional female, 30s, working in the NHS.


PM me if you're interested in chatting further.


Thanks

Hi dulwichflower - I have one of those lonely planet or maybe its the rough guide books to India if you need one? Also got the 'culture shock' guide to Indai too. PM me if interested in taking them off my hands.


Enjoy your travels - v.jealous, you'll have a F-A-B time for sure. x

My daughter did one of these treks 10,000 miles for ?2,000 all went well until the six who had planned it with her had all dropped out after a few weeks.

She carried on alone and travelled with others she met along the way, and had a great time, some of whom have dropped in to meet up with her since the holiday.

People are much more amenable and willing to chat when you travel alone, and the best thing is you decide who to talk to.

    • "Sitting around doing job related things". Do you mean sitting and doing their jobs? "have you had your COVID jabs?" Perhaps instead of spending your time on here insulting other posters, in this case me, you would be more effectively employed contacting the practice management with a detailed description of exactly what you say you saw and when. And then see what they say. You have made a lot of assumptions with presumably absolutely no idea what those people's jobs are or when their break times are. I am not defending the practice, which seems to have some problems  I just don't like seeing people who aren't here to defend themselves being publicly attacked by someone who apparently doesn't actually know what those people were doing and why.
    • Relatively recently, they employed a couple of young people on front desk work they were excellent. I don’t know if they’re still there. And yes, they may be doing something on their computers that’s important but when you see  people queuing and no one appearing for many minutes the system seems inefficient.  Some simple changes could make a big difference.  But those changes would have to come from management rather than individual workers choosing to jump up and help. 
    • I'm happy not seeing a GP face to face.  I had WhatsApp video appointments a couple of years ago,which ended up with me being rightly sent to Tommies A and E.  I see nurses from time to time at TJ, I always have a good laugh with both them and the blood test people.  I see the practice nurse at FH from time to time and it feels like visiting an old friend. I'm not sure whether social media has made us a more negative nation, or it just feels this way due to some of you who post on this forum.  The majority of posts in ED matters and on the transport thread are complaints  How would you define lazy and useless?  There is a spectrum of productivity, and of customer service.  Some excel at one or both, but I'm not sure at what point workers drop below an acceptable level.  When I am unhappy I will complain to an organisation. Some respond better than others.  One of my first posts over a decade was to complain about a local shop.  It's a funny anecdote which is essentially a "Ok you don't want my money so I'll go and spend many 100s of pounds at a different company" but I regret not dealing directly with the shop rather than getting pointless revenge many years later.  Still won't use the shop though.        
    • Now as an ex patient my impression was that their is a general lack of accountability  or responsibility by the staff at FHRGP and heaven forbid you should disagree with them, "not allowed". They want total control with no scrutiny. How that practice survives, I really don't know.  That being said, two or three of the staff are excellent.
