I think the end result is register elsewhere. I went down there,had a fight with a receptionist who "isnt allowed to just call the practice manager without a detailed account of the complaint". I had just been on the phone with PM and she had asked me to come in and ask for her. Ended up raising my voice almost when the reception manager came over-so many managers and no decent staff:mad: Long story short got my prescription (they had my records on 15/08 already so she just didnt bother to look.) and appointment to see the "head of practice" on Monday-30 minute consultation at 15:00(puts it down to remember).

A friend of mine sees said doctor and says she is fantastic so will wait until then to make a decision.
Also got a call from the health visitor who will be popping in on Wednesday at 14:00ish:j Maybe she'll have some advice re DS eczema.

Playdate went well but was longer than I expected-the boys had so much fun. DS has a rubber frog that looks very real, friend was scared of it so DS kissed the frog and loved it and explained so well-"no babby,frog,kiss like ribbit ribbit".

And I've done some more work (says me proudly)
