Nope, not finding anything relating to that that makes sense when I google for it. Can you explain further (or PM to avoid derailing the thread)?

Looks at the BBC forecast, looks out of the window... um, no. That can't be right.

Checks BBC forecast again, and looks out of the window again.

WTF?

Check the right hand side of the page and check where the observations were taken.
The readings for Peterborough appear to be taken at Wittering which is several miles away to the north west of the city. In short, the forecast for where you are is only going to be spot on if you're living at the local weather station.

Went to my doctors yesterday, to see a locum for my medication review to be met with "so why are you here?".. mmm lets see, you insisted I arranged an appointment, is it too much to actually put a note on the appointment to say why I've arrived. To help not only the poor locum who looked very embarrassed when I replied "er I was asked to come in for a meds review" but to keep the appointment time down.

Pretty poor opening statement. The idea is that you're meant to encourage the patient to open and talk. That kind of introduction just makes it look like he's accusing you. I'm sure Neighbour, Balint et al would be very unhappy with this.

At our practice, if the patient was asked to come in for a medication review, this is usually noted on the appointment screen and I always check to see if there's anything else they were concerned about.

Depending on how the rest of the consultation went, you may wish to put in a complaint. If it's a new locum who's having lots of similar complaints, the practice probably won't hire him again. If it was just you, it'll be put down as something to be learned.

Once, I made an appointment with my doctor to discuss test results for a test that she prescribed me and I hadnt heard of for ages. I got there and she said "what can I do for you?" so I said "oh I'd like my test results please" "oh yeah they came back positive but we cant really do anything about it".
useless.

Then the question I'll ask is "why was the test done in the first place?". Tests should only be done for confirmation of diagnosis or if it'll influence management.

Andy Murray will not be the "first GB Wimbledon singles winner in 76 years" - Virginia Wade won it in 1977! :evil:
