Thank you. I appreciated that they wdn't be open at the moment but asked my question as hadn't expected to hear that both shops were empty of goods. Maybe they are recognising that Covid is going to be around for a long time and taking opportunity to re-organise shops.

Non-Essential - Unintended Consequences and all that !!


On Friday I very urgently needed some mobility aids for someone leaving hospital. The Physios and Occupational Therapists advised me to try The British Heart Foundation as the 'always have plenty of what you need in stock'.


Well, they're all shut. Without these 'non-essential' items the patient would have remained blocking a bed in hospital.


I've sorted it all out now thanks and we have what we need. It did though cause a lot of extra stress and hours of hassle when it was imperative to get them out of a potentially covid infected area ASAP.

Some of the paid staff at St. Christopher's are taking the opportunity to sort out stock and tidy up the premises.

Depending on mobility aids- many pharmacies stock these and can order stuff as does Boots. Surprised that the OT and Pysio were not able to give you some mobility aids - there is usually frames, crutches and sticks in stock.

    • Sue. You really don’t have to keep saying about the electoral system    a) we all know about it b) it doesn’t matter    FPTP is the system we have always had and hopefully we will get rid of it someday but it is what it is    when anyone suggests changing the system Corbyn is right there at the front of the queue to prevent it   so its pointless him or any of supporters complaining about it    the evidence you want is the result of the elections. You can’t have clearer evidence. 
    • Has anyone from the school commented? Have they said why? Is it a fresh start? Is it that Grove in the name may have connotations of wealth and they want to attract more applicants from a wider area? Is that it currently is linked to the DKH Estate? 
    • As you quite rightly say a sample of 500 is extremely  small. (actually unrepresentative in the scheme of things) Now corbyn has his own party or should that be Party, it'll be interesting to see if it is merely a "think tank" or if it contests seats and then if they win any and if they chase currently held seats by Labour. It'll be even more amusing if it unseats current Labour Ministers though.
