Review on Trustpilot. New site
I have put my thoughts on the forum on Trustpilot, since I do not think they would last five minutes here. A copy has gone to Scope. I have valid points and I expect to be heard, not told to stop being a little silly and go and play a nice game. Just put what you had for breakfast, dear. Adults are not to be addressed as…

So relieved to hear on last night's news that The Trumpet does not want a second debate with the President-in-waiting, Kamala Harris 🤩 (he looks done in!)

Alzheimer's Drug Treatment not available on the NHS
This is not something that affects me personally ‘yet’, but I am very concerned that the NHS has not had the elderly at the forefront of their care for a long time. I do think it sad that they have said that they will not be funding the new drug treatment for Alzheimer’s patients due the cost involved. Quoting - it is only…
