I've a few points to make, but one initial question. Had he bought the items online, using their Click & Collect facility?

> Shops cancelled refuse by law to sell you items at the ticket price. I truly can't understand this sentence, even with the help of the rest of your para and some real world knowledge. What was it the shops actually did?

Did anyone here make any submissions in response to the 2024 https://www.gov.uk/government/calls-for-evidence/restricting-the-generation-of-surplus-funds-from-traffic-contraventions?

Sounds worth an excursion. Thanks.

I see their website has it as https://www.royalmail.com/services-near-you/delivery-office/peckham-and-east-dulwich-delivery-office-se15-5au, though I wouldn't be at all surprised if they're also distinct administrative or operational entities for some purposes. I note, for example, that Peckham (SE15) isn't on the list.

A reminder of the current situation. Covid-19 Eligibility: https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/covid-19-vaccine/ Availability: NHS are no longer running their own appointment-making system. This winter's version is still available from some pharmacies until 31 January. They may have individual availability times, see: https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/pharmacy/find-a-pharmacy-offering-walk-in-COVID-19-vaccination-services Flu Flu vaccinations (65+, pregnant, higher risk, or private) are available from some pharmacies. See https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/pharmacy/find-a-pharmacy-that-offers-free-flu-vaccination for details of eligibility and a link to a pharmacy finder. Some may offer appointments: you may have to dig down into their individual listing. RSV Currently eligible/recommended: If pregnant (at 28+ weeks), or age 75-79, or became 80 on or after 1 Sept 2024. This has been available from GP practices. I was offered one by text. When I responded a week later they didn't have any available but gave me one by appointment three weeks later. https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/rsv-vaccine/ Other vaccines https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/

There is also the compendious Traffic Signs Manual which you might find useful: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/traffic-signs-manual. "The Traffic Signs Manual offers advice to traffic authorities and their contractors, designers and managing agents in the United Kingdom, on the use of traffic signs and road markings on the highway network. Chapter 1 provides a general introduction and the legislative background."

Back in the stone age it wasn't uncommon to see dog turds in the street that had weathered and turned white -- probably residual calcium from what they'd been fed. At that stage I think they were pretty friable and close to disappearing. Mother Nature doing her bit.

In case anyone's wondering, ED is back in the list of DOs currently performing poorly. I got the email saying so yesterday, and the daily list is still as above.

For a description of the different classifications see https://www.gov.uk/guidance/medicines-reclassify-your-product/#overview

https://bnf.nice.org.uk/drugs/naproxen/#exceptions-to-legal-category has: "Exceptions to legal category" "Can be sold to the public for the treatment of primary dysmenorrhoea in women aged 15–50 years subject to max. single dose of 500 mg, max. daily dose of 750 mg for max. 3 days, and a max. pack size of 9 x 250 mg tablets." You can also scroll down on that page for a link to a list of all individual medicinal preparations, including for each its legal category (eg POM).
