So snivelling to daddy for a bank of dad handout?

I wonder if he'll sign on. Maybe Megs could try for PIP.  She does seem to have a persecution complex and a few character traits that could preclude employment. It seems you only need a sob story to get that these days.

I imagine most of the elderly will have repeat prescriptions that need to be reordered. Those will also be reviewed annually and that will surely keep them on the books

This sounds more like a scare story than a real problem to me. It could lead to younger people or itinerants of any age being deregistered but that is up to them.

Harry has a massive legal bill to fund .
£21 million 
I don't know if this was all his as other celebrities were also in the court case but it will be no small sum .

I read in the paper the other day that the NHS is asking GP's to take any patients off their books if they haven't been to the doc's for some time.
It is thought to be a 'cost cutting measure'  because GP surgeries are paid for each patient they have on their books.
Only thing is that the software used to carry out this 'cull'  can be over-zealous and many elderly patients have been kicked out of their surgery,  and  won't be able to book an appointment if they need one!

The article suggested that anyone who hasn't been to their GP for a while  (it didn't say how long), ought to check they are still on their surgery's books.


Here's a bit more:

The NHS is conducting routine "list cleansing" exercises across England to remove "ghost patients"—individuals who haven't been seen in a long time, moved away, or left the country. Patients who do not respond to letters or messages confirming their details risk being automatically deregistered .

Perhaps they've come back to get divorced ?  It would be much cheaper here !
OR They're skint
OR they're becoming isolated there, all their US friends have backed off.  I read Harry went on his own to the Super Bowl final, he didn't have a mate to take along.

Who knows, more importantly who cares !

It's amazing how quick you can get used to the heat. Well me anyway. It's 24°C as I sit watching TV and it feels a bit bit chilly...
