No complaints here when it comes to medical stuff. I suspected I had strep throat this morning, so I called to make an appointment with the doctor. My appointment was set for 9.30. I arrived about 9.25, was called back in under 2 minutes, saw the doc, she printed out my prescription, I walked down to the pharmacy (it's on my way home), paid my £6.85 for my prescription, got my prescription with advice to take it on an empty stomach, and walked home. I looked at my watch when I arrived home -- it was 9.45! I love it!
We had a similar situation with the dentist last week. The boys and I were all seen (Elam even got a small filling) and we were home in under an hour.

Besides all the walking, it sounds pretty efficient...but, you are so used to walking everywhere by now, it probably doesn't even seem like a bother to walk to the doc. Glad you were able to get it taken care of so quickly...does this mean the 4th celebration is cancelled?
WHAT?!? Maybe we should come go to your surgery. Our takes F.O.R.E.V.E.R. But we do have all prescriptions free to everyone in Wales, so that's not too shabby.
