The EDT was Indeed packed. So much so that they run out of glasses and only had Plastic ones..

I left early and went for a Curry in Memsaab.

I'm absorbed by The Crown at the mo!


Until it started buffering constantly on Boxing Day night ....


Back to normal last night though .....


The Ivy House was open for two hours on Christmas Day and was absolutely rammed :)

That's not nice to hear JohnL - you've had a pretty rough time - hope you're ok?


I suppose, if I'm completely honest - I love my family but the schedule - do this, then and this next and then this and this and this. ...I would love to just go away for Christmas and New Year - just away completely - and take everyone with me. A nice ten star hotel on an island somewhere hot (but not too hot, my nan won't like it). The pressure to make sure everyone is happy is unbelievable. It's like we all have a schedule to follow and can't just do our own thing. My sister cooks for around 15 people and does so well, I would love her to just chill. Maybe I should hire a chef one year, and waiters.



I do - however - absolutely LOVE the week between Christmas and New Years Eve. It's as if time stops and anything goes.


Can't quite get my head around the fact I've got a 9am meeting with the boss tomorrow. but he's super fab, maybe we'll get coffee and it will be ok



Happy 2018 everyone... and you Natty xx

That's appalling and you should definitely report it both to the White Horse manager and to other appropriate people/organisations.


You should not have to "just put up with it".

      I'm a patient. Over the past 9 years I have had to have more "engagement" with the Practice and believe things have significantly deteriorated.  Have you attempted to get an appointment with them?  They send patients to the Tessa Jowell Centre as "an overspill", why is is? Why can they not see patients at the practice? Why are patients required to submit photo's so they can be diagnosed. I thought the purpose of GP's was to SEE their patients, diagnose, treat and refer them if and as required to hospital. Or am I incorrect??   The practice does has some excellent staff, but the reviews show the constraints they obviously have to operate under.  The agenda they have prepared has some very interesting and topical items that are up for discussion, so a prime opportunity to ask them some searching and difficult questions they'd probably rather not be asked.  Time for some scrutiny to be applied. The practice is supposed to provide a broad range of medical services for its patients, personally I do not feel this has been or is the case. Have a read of the practices online reviews, to say the least, they make painful reading.  As an example. years ago, the doctor who had a surgery further up Forest Hill Road till he retired and FHRGP took over a lot of the patients from there, the doctor offered a walk in morning and afternoon surgery and did home visits in the evening. Why can FHRGP not operate something similar?  They have a huge building, from what I have seen, the space is inadequately used with vast amounts sitting empty, such a waste. Other local practices, I'm sure would love to be located in such a vast building.  I'd like to see much more patient involvement in how the practice operates and delivers its services to us the patients.

      Are you on the PPG?  They appear to want others to engage but they also acknowledge that such a group will never be fully representative of users  There is lots on line, but it was interesting to find the last inspection report of the CQC who quote a survey done my the PPG.  https://www.cqc.org.uk/location/1-544424476/inspection-summary
