    Calley, showing ID for freecycle is weird. Can't see it's any thing to be worried about on your side though. They must just be hugely over cautious.

    Thats what I thought. And who else would be going to collect the said item.

    I don't know why, but that makes me uneasy. :huh: ID has your name and address on, and I've never heard of anyone asking for ID before. Like you say, who else is going to turn up for it?

    Prescription update- The receptionist said "It is ready! I'll just check it...oh, some of it is done but not all of it. There is quite a lot and some has been missed off. I will take it back to the doctor, call in 3 hours".

    How can this go so wrong every time? If my GP wasn't absolutely brilliant I would change practices.

    JM, Approved Foods were selling 5 Diam bars for 99p a while back. I won't mention how many I bought...

    Erm.............just wanted to say hello really. Found your lovely blanky fort a few weeks ago and it has taken me a few weeks to read all the way through it to current time.


    Just wanted to announce myself sitting quietly in the corner of the fort really and to say thank you so, so much to all of you. Not sure if you know how inspirational, motivating and heart warming you lot are. You've made me laugh, cry, angry (for you, not at you), hopeful, relieved and just downright relieved to find others like me.


    so I wanted to send my first big hug to all and say that I hope to join in a bit from now on if that's ok.


    WaS: Prescriptions not being sorted out - ARGHHHHHHHH!!! I know that one and think you are being Oh so patient and calm about it all. If I have ever run out of anything, pharmacies have always given me a few days supply to tide me over till doctors sort the prescriptions out so it might be worth having a word with yours - especially if you always go to the same place and therefore they know you/your prescription history. I think the pharmacies know how overworked the surgeries are and try and help out.

    Grats to Calley and NCIS fan :D great news

    Melly, great about the nuclear job, boo about the linkedin one. And lots and lots of *hugs*

    WaS - I hope theyve fixed your perscription now, its rediculous to have issues every single month. Def time for a complaint.


    Today I've showered and sorted out car insurance. Need to try to gently tidy as i have guests tomoz, but also have an app at my new Dr's in the morning. Absolutely terrified and trying to ignore it atm.
