I park on Tescos & walk over
Never thought of doing that. I usually drive in and park in ront of the staff cars on their side of the car park. If anyone was to complain, then I'm ready to have a go at all the spaces in the customer bit being taken up.

So my doctor's surgery called today to advise that DVLA wanted confirmation from a GP that I was still fit to drive.

I pointed out that I had recently had an appointment with my diabetic specialist on the same subject but apparently that doesn't count. What a waste of NHS resources?

Whilst on the phone I asked to make an appointment for my COVID booster but apparently they don't do this or the flu jab at the surgery despite them sending me a text last week to book them and that I would need to turn up at the Limes for the COVID jab and wait for the flu jab when they've got appointments at the surgery.

Why send the text messages in the first place?

I went to the limes for my covid booster and was asked if i wanted my flu jab at the same time....I'd had mine the week before when I went to the Dr's for my Vitamin b12 ....I wasn't booked in for flu but they offered it to me there and then.

Where's the Limes?

Enjoying a drop of red.
Jr and I are being forced to enjoy hospitality before tonight's match. Not sure what's on the menu yet but I did catch a glimpse of something smoked salmon related, so that's a good start. As is the bottle of wine that's just turned up.

Good job we've got a taxi booked to take us back to Formby later...

I was wondering that too
Drive in as if you're going to vets 4 pets, but drive past them to the little Rd, instead of exiting to your right, continue on into the carpark straight in front, the building slightly to the right is 'the limes'.......behind the person in the hiviz.

First time since moving here that I've been so cold out walking that decided I'd better find where my gloves are hiding .
Used them as packing during the move, so hoping they didn't get slung along with the bubble wrap & boxes....

Actually got a much warmer house here, costing less to heat even though its twice as big. Any heat we put on actually stays in the house as well insulated and no draughts.

Used to have towels stuffed behind the kitchen cupboards before, and scouring pads & sellotape around all the gaps . 😂
Still had a gale force wind blowing through!
