recently had to use BUPA Private GP which I can get via my work. I had been trying to get a GP appointment for a non urgent thing, but again unless you call between 8.30 and 9 every morning for a time slot later on that day, then you don't really have an option. My surgery actually do offer an appointment a week in advance for mornings only. This is better than most but the nature of my job means that I have work booked 4-6 weeks in advance, I don't finish at the same time each day and can't really cancel it as its block booked appointments. Just a bit frustrating that you can't say ok tell me a date and time in a month from now and I can try and organise around it. You could of course use a days annual leave in the hope you can get through between 8.30 and 9 in the hope you can be seen that day.

Quote from: Truthsayer on April 02, 2024, 10:53:35 PMPenalties are a scourge copied from soccer. No big deal on Sunday for league final but to decide a championship game on penalties is appalling.. totally demeaned last years Ulster final.
LOL no it didn't

and why is that then?

Quote from: seafoid on March 12, 2024, 03:40:30 PMSomeone said upthread that the buses past Casement only go every 15 minutes. Does Belfast not have different arrangements for buses feeding crowds to big matches ?
transport in the west is brutal, used to work on the Stewartstown road, could take half an hour to get there from divis. Buses very irregular although the glider has helped this. Usually gridlock all the time god help it on a match day in casement
