Heat seems to have got to normally reliable @DPD_Care_Uk. Yesterday's delivery never happened and the tracking app wasn't updated for 10hrs. Today the driver "missed" us 27min before the end of his time slot but that appears from his pic to be because he was nowhere near a house.

Got a message via the NHS App re a hospital appointment. It said to take the letter with me so I downloaded it to my phone. Needn't have bothered because they've wasted money sending the same letter by post. Thought opting for electronic comms would save NS funds. @wesstreeting
