was thinking more of 'with a drink in the Magnolia' sort of thing, but online might be a poss

only thing is, I find that some play clockwise and some play anti clockwise

I'm a clockwise girl and get all discombobulated (lovely word that) when I meet the anti clockwise layout!

oh dear, will have to retrain my brain

not a very experienced player but sometimes play on holiday and love it

thought it might be nice (ekk, memories of the 'Miles' debate about the word 'nice') to get a few interested players to meet up to play in ED

got a cute roll up leather and suede one that's great for traveling the world with


bought it years ago from this shop... great range, shop's bit geeky and old fashioned but in a cool way

ps remind me what 'Foxtrot Victor Tango' means Mikecg

this is the way I play it... I would be black (or brown in this case) and play clockwise could you be Persuaded(?)

what does everyone think is a good way of orgabising it via the forum????


is it best to PM everyone that wants 'in'????

or should I put it up on the 'what's happening in ED???


or both? first time I've arranged anything via EDF so advice welcomed :)

    • Relatively recently, they employed a couple of young people on front desk work they were excellent. I don’t know if they’re still there. And yes, they may be doing something on their computers that’s important but when you see  people queuing and no one appearing for many minutes the system seems inefficient.  Some simple changes could make a big difference.  But those changes would have to come from management rather than individual workers choosing to jump up and help. 
    • I'm happy not seeing a GP face to face.  I had WhatsApp video appointments a couple of years ago,which ended up with me being rightly sent to Tommies A and E.  I see nurses from time to time at TJ, I always have a good laugh with both them and the blood test people.  I see the practice nurse at FH from time to time and it feels like visiting an old friend. I'm not sure whether social media has made us a more negative nation, or it just feels this way due to some of you who post on this forum.  The majority of posts in ED matters and on the transport thread are complaints  How would you define lazy and useless?  There is a spectrum of productivity, and of customer service.  Some excel at one or both, but I'm not sure at what point workers drop below an acceptable level.  When I am unhappy I will complain to an organisation. Some respond better than others.  One of my first posts over a decade was to complain about a local shop.  It's a funny anecdote which is essentially a "Ok you don't want my money so I'll go and spend many 100s of pounds at a different company" but I regret not dealing directly with the shop rather than getting pointless revenge many years later.  Still won't use the shop though.        
    • Now as an ex patient my impression was that their is a general lack of accountability  or responsibility by the staff at FHRGP and heaven forbid you should disagree with them, "not allowed". They want total control with no scrutiny. How that practice survives, I really don't know.  That being said, two or three of the staff are excellent.
