Prescription collected

Thanks for the notebook info, it's very useful. 

I'm sorry about the varying font size on some of my posts, the posts look ok in preview but once published the font goes haywire.

We collected Steve's prescription today, I don't what it is with the pharmacy but every time I go in to collect a prescription  they dither about looking in first one place, then another. Then they ask how long ago it was ordered, then another hunt through the baskets of prescriptions. Every visit takes an age.

The pharmacy is next door to the bakers, so we buy a bacon roll and coffee for Steve for the journey home and a Belgian bun for me, I eat it once we are back on the boat otherwise the steering wheel would get very sticky!

Steve filled one of the water tanks this morning and  I repotted my herbs, I have thyme, parsley, marjoram and mint.

Our pharmacy is just the same.They don’t seem to have a “system” and waste so much time.

The pharmacy I go to have three assistants , with two of them it's all very straight forward but the other lady is dreadful . I don't understand why it takes her twice as long to sort it , hubby always knows which one served me by how quickly I am back and by the look on my face lol

When we were in Ipswich the pharmacy was hopeless, things were done by date and of course no one knew what date they had requested their tablets.
Thankfully at the doctors pharmacy where I am now its organised by surnames a-z - much easier

It's not a secret.

Y'day while Steve was out with his friend Bob, Betty phoned and asked if I'd like to go and get the cheap vegetables from the nearby...
