When I say 'saw' I mean I came out of the main entrance to a huge hub-bub and lots of nurses around a car with porters covering all the windows in towels. Poor, poor lady. You could hear her screams. I was in tears (I blame the pregnancy hormones. That or the fact that I'd had my glucose tolerance test and hadn't eaten for 14 hours!)

It all happened rather swiftly and by the time I'd finished my phone call (I turned my back to the whole drama so I felt like at least I was giving her a litle privacy!) mum and baby were on a trolley being wheeled in to a huge round of applause from the crowd. Can you imagine?

Gosh - wonder if she's one of our Autumn ladies?!

I hope I make it a bit further into the hospital :-/

Hmm, isn't unusual - had to run out to a couple of cars before with babies being/having been delivered outside A&E!!


A v good friend had her baby in the carpark at Kings, but it was about 10pm in the evening so not as much of a crowd.


Am sure having had your GTT beforehand hadn't helped your emotions Kerry - hope the result was ok x

A mate of mine gave birth in McDonald's carpark on the North Circular - pure class. The poor girl was on her way to hospital but they were stuck in a hideous traffic jam so that was the first place they could turn off and park up. Shockingly the McDonald's staff were all aware of what was going on but no one so much as offered her a coffee afterwards!

my friend was having a nice home birth last winter and suddenly nobody could hear the baby's pulse, so she was rushed to hospital. It took a bit longer than usual because of the snow - and she gave birth in a lift at kings!

put me off having a home birth forever...

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
