Ours is the only surgery in the city that still hasn't activated the online booking and prescription service. Nothing will make them budge, as it will cost them to train staff and make the system live.

And they are the only surgery that hasn't made online transfer of scripts to the pharmacy live.

Many have complained to local MPs and councillors, and even the Health Authority, but "nothing can be done as they are run by a private company".

"I broke into <name of surgery> last week and was quite disappointed. I expected computers, laptops, mobile phones, and expensive state of the art medical equipment, but they had nothing of value. I shall not be burgling that place again, what a waste of my time. 1/10 . . and the 1 is only because they left a window open for me"

:D

I have tried for the 4th time to send off the lad's unused VM Tivo, but yet again the "scanner" is not working to book it in to Yodel.

I was warned that the two other places nearest to us are also out of order.

I had kit collected by local VM staff. Call in tell them what's up. If I remember correctly I had a choice of prepaid returns packaging or collection.

Youtube, and their removal of the 'auto play' button for (music) videos. - there's a fix, but it's a pain to do for every damn video.

Add to that, they create a 'playlist' that shoves stuff you probably don't want to watch/listen to into the mix - which also auto plays.

30 minutes of faffing around to find 2 extensions for Vivaldi that will hopefully give me back some control.

:mad: :grind:

They sent me an email saying that the kit is valued at £90, and I would be billed for that amount if I didn't return it.

I don't know where Evri have delivered my parcel. Oh well I'll open a case tomorrow. The GPS stamp and delivery picture doesn't match my home.
