Until recently if one had an emergency out if hours one coukd call Celkdic...who in our case can arrange so I could pick up emergency medication locally...my wife had brain surgery and has to have specific prescribed drugs...now you call 111..who send an email to your Pharmacy...where the pharmacist cannot dispense them....suggesting only that you go to a and e ...which last two times we went took 9.5 hours...and almost killed my wife with the anxiety....it seems a common practise now to shrug and pass the buck. And Dulwich Medical Centre itself is even worse a wall of unqualified people who can't help....from a surgery owned by a guy who earns a million quid a year...need I say more

"A wall of unqualified people who can't help"?


Would you care to expand on that, please?


Also, I have recently unfortunately had to go to A&E four times, and after triage they prioritise patients according to need.


If you have to wait a long time it is because there are more urgent cases.


If you don't like the long waiting times, blame the government for underfunding the NHS.


ETA: I have also had to call 111 several times recently, and I absolutely can't fault the service.


ETA: I think you should change the totally misleading subject of this thread.


ETA: And if somebody is making money out of running a surgery, then I suggest you blame the system which allows them to do that. You cannot blame somebody for taking advantage of it, surely.


I blame the Tories, but then I would.

Admin, are you able to change the title yourself if the OP doesn't or won't?


And move it to a more appropriate section of the forum?

    • I like empanadas. I don't think Chango is a massive chain - it's got a few stores all in London I believe (stand to be corrected if I've got that wrong). I don't see a problem with them opening on the Lane personally. I really like Chacarero, but that doesn't mean that they should be immune from competition - if they're successful and open a couple more stores, are we then meant to stop supporting them for being a 'chain'?  That opening post does sound a lot like marketing spiel though. Is the OP perhaps connected to the new business I wonder?
    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
