I received an email from my online shop, proudly announcing they were issuing me with a very special voucher, specially just for me!

I can confirm that. I have lived here for almost 40 years, until two years ago I had my own Doctor (Piper, until he retired, then "*******" until she retired) extremely happy with the surgery, I knew all the people from the Nurses, all five Doctors and the receptionists, good people all. They...

I think I belong to one of the most disjointed Doctors surgery's in Britain! On Tuesday I spoke with a Doctor on the phone, she said I did need to see her and to leave it with her to make the appointment. On Wednesday morning I get a text message from the surgery to IGNORE any appointment texts...

I found the other end of the scale recently. I like to go for (fairly) early morning walks around the town where I live. At my age I have to plan each walk around where there are benches for me to sit and recover, one of these benches is in the centre (center) of town and I normally hit it at...
