NJS 4782 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Does anyone still use their phone land line? I had a pre-assessment for my cataract surgery last week but I overlooked the part in the letter that said don't drive to the appointment so they couldn't do one of the tests and they promised to fit me in quite quickly to do the outstanding test but I got a letter today with an appointment in 8 weeks time. I phoned to complain and they told me they'd rung me several times before last week to go over the details and would have emphasised the driving thing but they used my home number which goes to ansaphone and I never check it - I didn't even tell them it so they must have looked it up. They claim they tried my mobile but there's nothing in the call history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting they claim to have phoned your mobile and there was no record in your log. Exact same thing happened to me when my GP "phoned" 2 weeks ago. I presumed he was lying. The GP text messages got through okay though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4782 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 They rang my land-line again earlier (made me realise the units need new batteries as it cut out straight away) then rang my mobile straight after with no bother - appointment next Thursday so all good in the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 11523 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Was making small talk with the builder (yes I was ramping up my Geordie accent to sound like a more approachable and honest, hardworking, bloody bloke, why do you ask?). He says his next job is basically sorting out a house making repairs and stuff. The owner had rented this £700k house out to a mid twenties Vietnamese lass who was dead friendly, when she moved in she popped around the neighbours with cakes and shit to introduce herself. Fast forward a few months and the police are raiding the house after the neighbour tipped them off that it had been turned into a marijuana farm Gone was the nice young lady, instead two indentured servants (one a 15yr old kid) were looking after a three storey semi-detached kush farm. Half arsed modifications had been made like knocking through into the chimney to use as a vent (even thought he thing was capped), wiring and lighting rigs taped or clipped precariously to the now exposed beams. The question I've got is; why in the fuck would you choose to have a marijuana farm in a quiet, fairly well to do area? With loads of nosey neighbours, when the Cheshire countryside is filled with houses in the middle of nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
