Good morning all, It's a cold wet morning, It's been raining most of the night here too.

Morning Rev, Yes this the same type but somehow the lance joint is misshapen and impossible to undo without damaging it I don't think I've used it more than a dozen times or so.

I'm going to to email the manufacturer before I do anything else.

Good morning all, can I have a moan?

My 4th attempt to see a GP specialist today failed (North London). I was told to queue up outside at 08:00 which I did and arrived in plenty of time, but was number 8 in the line up. When they let us in and I got to the desk, the receptionist said only 3 appointments were available and they had already gone.

What didn’t help was a little man with an irritating loud voice, arriving last, in his beaten up old Volvo pushing and coughing, shouting everyone to get out. Anyway, the receptionist told me to come back on Monday. Moan over

It's the same here Phil, our local surgery is the same. It was never like this before we started letting every Tom, Dick and Harry into this country and people who I may add have never paid a penny into the system. It really does make my blood boil

You are right Steve and round here the local university was closed and demolished. In its place, the council built a new housing estate. The nearest GP practice to this is the one I use. 5 GPs and they are fully stretched. I saw one of them the other day pacing up and down outside of the surgery, on his mobile with a fag in his hand. The poor chap, had the weight of the world on his shoulders, I could see it.

I don’t know what’s going to happen to the NHS. The scan and consultation I had 2 weeks ago, I paid for that out of my own pocket £408. I paid for the convenience and it was quick with no cancellation and no queues. Not ideal, as like yourself I paid National Insurance and UK taxes all my working life.

I emailed them this morning & got a reply straightaway, it has a 3 year guarantee and I've to ship it back to them, It's huge/heavy and will cost me a bomb to return I disposed of the original box last week when I cleared the garage out (sods law)
I wonder if I can get away with just sending the lance/gun back as the power washer is working perfectly!
