Just a heads-up.

I've been shopping in SMBS for years.

Yesterday I bought a few things in there, including a smallish piece of ginger.

I thought it was a bit strange that it was rung up without being weighed (??why??), and then that the total came to nearly twenty pounds, so I said "How much was the ginger?"

After a bit of shuffling about, the guy said "Oh, I've charged you too much for the ginger" (oh, really?)

He had charged me about SIX POUNDS !!!!!

Had I been buying more things, or had I not been paying attention, I might not have noticed.

Check your till receipts, people ..... unless you can afford to pay about a zillion pounds a kilo for stuff without blinking an eyelid .....

  My experience with phone shops is that they hand the phone to you to key in passwords etc.

  Please consider any security issues associated with someone helping. Does the person have good intentions? Do they know what they are doing? Will they require your passwords or screen unlock. Will they set them for you and consequently know them? Will they store them for you? Are you sharing passwords you cannot change immediately after or are used in other places? Will they recommend apps that potentially open up security or privacy issues you do not know about. It is a bit of a minefield depending on what help you need 🙂

  I think it's outrageous that he thinks he can do this. This is about reducing waiting lists. How dare he seek to fundamentally change the judicial system to address administrative failings (for which he is responsible). Courts are notoriously slow. Judges are slow. Perhaps look at WHY there are so many cases - what's going on? is crime going through the roof? Why not more judges, why not look at how court admin is managed? We had one judge - over retirement age, who only worked once a week (possibly) and was slow, frail and no idea about emails etc. no sense of urgency. I actually complained which did hurry things up. This is not a dynamic private company who wants to get things done - it takes time, it's a complicated and thorough process. RIGHTLY SO. As least he's not lifting the lid on free legal aid and increasing the tax payers funding of it.
