Google calendars - advice needed!

OK, so I created a new combined calendar and (after a bit of faffing about) imported the contents of my existing two calendars into it, expecting then to be able to delete the old ones and just use the new one for 2014. Because it was all getting a bit complicated with two, even though I could see one from the other.


BUT


It appears the two existing calendars are both by default designated "primary" calendars - one for my Goose email address and one for my Sue email address. Even though they're both under the same name.


And having googled blah blah, found that:


"Note: It is not possible to delete your primary calendar. Instead, you can clear all the events, rename it, and schedule new events to effectively replace your original primary calendar."


SO, it seems that I can't just have one calendar which I can put stuff into from both email addresses? Which is a bit useless? Also other people need to be able to view it/them and it would be a lot easier if there was only one.


Advice please?


And then I've got to find out how to access it/them from my phone, AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH :(

If the technicalities won't let you do exactly what you want, can't you just view/use both calenders at once? I have my own one, but then also access to several clinic ones and I can view them all at once both on PC and phone (though I have to keep an eye on how I enter things on my phone as I sometimes end up with stuff on the shared diary by mistake).

Yes, thanks, I can view/use both calendars at once and have been, but it's a nuisance. I'd rather just have one!

      Plumber recommendation - A.F.E Plumbing Services

      By Sue · Posted

      You can always check when they registered on the forum, if you are suspicious. But I recommended Aria, and it certainly wasn't my only post on here, and it was a genuine recommendation. ETA: And he didn't ask me to make it, to the best of my recollection. But even if he had, many local tradespeople ask people to post on here if they are happy with the work that has been done.

      I am not a patient at this practice, but surely it is more sensible to have an initial  phone discussion, as often the GP wouldn't need to see someone face to face unless they actually needed to physically examine them? This then leaves the available face to face appointments for patients who need them. And if during  the phone call the GP felt you needed examining, then arrangements could be made for a face to face. If you feel your ailment is such that you will definitely need to be physically examined, can you not explain that to the receptionist?

      Noticeboard on Northcross Road

      By Sue · Posted

      Give Labour a chance, they've only been in government for a short time, and they inherited a mess! As regards the notice boards, to the best of my recollection they were originally intended as community notice boards, and certainly not for advertising local businesses (who would decide which businesses  should have the limited space on the boards, anyway?) East Dulwich may have become more gentrified since the boards were first introduced, but that surely doesn't mean they should now be completely  taken over for the benefit of  the "middle classes", to the exclusion of everybody else? As  NewWave says, surely these people have other ways to find out about groups and events of interest to them, which the "non middle classes" may not have access to, and even if they did may not be able to afford them. Several people including myself have complained to councillors about the state of the noticeboards in the past.  I think one of the issues is that they were originally maintained by local volunteers, who may have either moved out of the area or lost interest - or given up in despair when the boards were flypostered and/or vandalised. I completely  agree that the boards should be used for information about not for profit organisations in the area, but if regular maintenance can't be provided and/or they continue to be vandalised, then I think it would be better if they were removed altogether.
