Yep, I know someone whose friend is a GP and they said that in their surgery alone, something like 10% of the patients accounted for 80% of the appointments. I small fee for each appointment would nip that in the bud, but that's a proper vote-loser policy, so it'll never happen.

I have no idea. All I'm saying that I don't think it's a simple as 'not enough appointments' because the staff are there and, when you REALLY need an appointment, you can get one. We've been told to wait weeks a few times but, are just ballsy and keep on hassling them until they give us a F2F (a...

Bringing it back to Good Old Shoreham-By-The-Sea, a new GP surgery (with pharmacy attached) has been built on the grounds of the old bit of Southlands hospital in recent years and at least two off-site locations within a mile or so of the town that have been turned into surgeries.

The answer is... it's been 'that busy' for years! I've told this story on here before, I'm sure, but when I used to work in Halfords on weekday evenings, the A259 would have a constant stream of traffic from around 5pm until 7pm. And it still does now. Other times, it's far less busy – obviously...

I'm not sure that's why the firepoeople were there. They seemed to be going door-to-door along the bottom of East Street and High Street when I saw them – nothing to do with the tides (although I agree I thought it looked bloody high when I looked out. There's a bit of an OTT reaction here. The...
