Yesterday, my son booked Clapham Minicabs, online, to get him and his wife and young son to Gatwick Airport for a flight back to Taiwan today. He paid ?50+ for them to collect from us in ED at 7.30 this morning but after waiting until 7.40 he called to see where they were. He couldn't get through to their number as there seemed to be something wrong with it so we all got pretty anxious. However he did get through around 8.00 and was told that they couldn't contact the cab driver and couldn't say where he was.

By then we had had enough and told them so and my son booked Uber. After 25 minutes (and being able to track their cab all the way) Uber had arrived and taken them off for a comfortable, swift journey to the airport and what a great relief it was to us all!

So, we now hope our son does get a refund, but that company's incompetence certainly gave us a very stressful time

today!


Thank you for sharing and don't forget CLAPHAM MINICABS1!

      If you are looking for a trustworthy professional, I highly recommend Niko. He has consistently delivered quality work. No job is too small, and he is always accommodating. He has helped me out on a number of occasions, often at short notice when unexpected issues arose. His number is 07818 607583.

      Anyone experiencing even greater issues securing a GP appointment with Tessa Jowell GP practice?

      Well, they do turn them away from the A&E route at Kings and rightly so they employ GPs and if after triaging you’re determined to have a GP type problem you are sent to see one of the GPs on site or close to the site.

      Bike stolen outside The Belham

      By JaneKinnin · Posted

      My bike (a ELOPS 120 step over classic from Decathlon) was stolen from outside The Belham this afternoon. I locked it up while I collected my kids, then the street was so busy that I left it there while I walked them home. Did a few other things at home, came back about 5.30pm and it was gone. Sharing just in case anyone sees it or finds it anywhere - it’s a few years old and the chain is a bit rusty/makes a clicking sound so maybe there’s a slight chance someone would dump it! Really annoying and just a reminder to be really careful with bikes. The picture shows the bike model from the Decathlon website.

      Thanks, I didn't know that.  People are even more stupid than I thought then, if they are willing to wait hours in A&E for an ingrown toenail. I presume they don't get put at the front of the queue. Why isn't the 111 service more widely advertised? That puts you in touch with a doctor, who will advise on the phone or visit, and if necessary  you will be advised to go to A&E or they will arrange an ambulance to take you.
