They are usually professional ex civil servants and solicitors etc. so are of a high calibre but have retired from the 9-5 hassle!Just your last sentence shows what is all wrong with the system. I've relied on the fantastic volunteers at Citizens Advice for a whole scope of areas from when I was ill a few years ago to all of mum's affairs etc and whilst at times they can't do much to help because of the system they have been brilliant. Why are they volunteers? They should be key workers on good salaries. Always baffled me.
Indeed they are in main,but also good mix of non professionalsThey are usually professional ex civil servants and solicitors etc. so are of a high calibre but have retired from the 9-5 hassle!

I’ve just seen another article about this, in the Times (not my rag), and apparently Bo-Job and Carrie are worried they won’t be able to afford a nanny. Moreover, they have to pay for any food that’s prepared in the No 10 kitchens and sent up to them. I’m weeping.Off the point a bit but if anyone wants a laugh read this.

well, he chose to have so many children, and to put himself up to be prime minister. Choices have consequences. I notice they dont mention Carries earnings.I’ve just seen another article about this, in the Times (not my rag), and apparently Bo-Job and Carrie are worried they won’t be able to afford a nanny.

I still have some of boxes left of the ones supplied when I was shielding I wonder if I should send him one just to tide him over though I'm afraid there is no bog paper left as it's all been used I used to have to use a lot of it after his Covid briefings and other bragging party political speeches he and his cohort made.I’ve just seen another article about this, in the Times (not my rag), and apparently Bo-Job and Carrie are worried they won’t be able to afford a nanny.

The two I know were retired teaches. Both received OBE's from the Queen for service. Certainly high calibre professionals.I would like to point out that none of the many citizens advice volunteers I have come across were ex civil servants or solicitors
They were, however, all person of high calibre.

My point is that ordinary non professionals can also be people of high calibre.The two I know were retired teaches. Both received OBE's from the Queen for service. Certainly high calibre professionals.
I don't know what GPs are doing either, if our local medical centre is anything to go by. My daughter had to wait 3 weeks for a 3 minute review by phone before they would renew her repeat prescription. There are 5 GPs at the medical centre, they must be very busy if they can't fit in a quick phone call.Posts on a Facebook group that I have recently joined make it clear that Endocrinology departments have not quite grasped the back to work message. I was concerned about not having had any contact for over a year now, but it seems I am far from being alone in this.
If it’s anything like my surgery the receptionists are always busy on the phone so you can’t get through!I don't know what GPs are doing either, if our local medical centre is anything to go by.

I had a WhatsApp with younger daughter tonight. Younger grandson’s friend and her brother have got the virus. Their mother’s superlatively careful, she’s a surgeon, so they most probably caught it at school. Their mother’s operating list will now have to be delayed while she isolates, and hopes she doesn’t get it too. More delays for people awaiting ops.
Things certainly are heating up! I think as always it's the uncertainty that's stressful. Infections are rising on my part of the south coast,nothing like some areas of the country though.The irony being Boris wanted schools open so parents could go back to work. Simple as that. Bet he didn't consider that children picking up the virus at school could mean people not being able to work!!
Big discussions on our Whatsapp work feed tonight,. A diabetic colleague of mine, who wasn't at all worried, is now very worried because she has symptoms which she hopes is a cold! She got knocked by the Caretaker who insists the school is more safe than other schools, which is a bit of a fallacy to be fair considering none of our students wear masks! Seems like you are not allowed to speak out due to "scaremongering" was his phrase. Nice bloke to be fair but bang out of order on that one. I kept quiet but did offer some advice to my colleague and she has a consultant so is talking to her on Monday. Will be very interesting to see what her consultant says.
