    • This is the other sign  parking sign 1a.pdf
    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.              
    • Unless I've got an incorrect copy of the relevant regulation: The PCN is only deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch "unless the contrary is proved" in which case date of delivery does matter (not just date of posting) and I would like clarification of the required standard of proof. It seems perhaps this hasn't been tested. Since post is now barcoded for the Post Office's own tracking purposes perhaps there is some way I can get that evidence from the Post Office...

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

[Why? Because people clog the appointments with self-limiting viral illnesses / coughs and colds / upset tummy for 24 hours because it's an 'emergency'/QUOTE]

 

I don't think some people are aware that you can go to the chemist to ask for advice. I've done this before. There's a notice up in the doctors waiting room saying that no amount of antibiotics will cure your cold and you can get stuff from your local chemist. I did that thinking I just had a blocked nose. Realising it was doing nothing and it was probably more, decided I probably needed to see someone about it.

 

A relative once took her child to A&E because they couldn't get the answer she wanted from the GP. She then whinged because of how long they were waiting! Well, I'm sorry; but considering there were probably people there who were in car accidents, broken bones, etc. It's kinda difficult to have sympathy.

Spot on, it's the reason we've countless posters encouraging people to 'Choose Well', that the NHS website is littered with advice on how to treat the undoubtedly unpleasant things like coughs/colds/upset stomachs without having to wait to see a GP. I've been loaded with a cold for 6 weeks now, still don't need to see a doctor...

 

(incidentally, for those who might be wondering; our GP's won't treat anything other than emergencies in staff - it's inappropriate unless in a rural area there are no alternative practices nearby. So, we wait just as long to see our own GP's...)

 

Working in a practice is it's own occupational hazard, we get a dose of every cough and cold going 'round and are fastidious about cleaning around patients with D&V. That's not the real issue though, we're often strong enough to fend these things off, but the person sat next to you in the waiting room may well be on Chemotherapy and can't. That unpleasant snotty nose might just prove fatal for them, we always try to segregate our most vulnerable patients from the normal waiting areas - they've even used my office before.

It's difficult to have sympathy for people like that. I remember my dad saying he'd undergone tests on his heart and brain and they found nothing abnormal. But DVLA still have guidelines to follow and regardless of how he was feeling, they couldn't give him back his licence. I seem to remember 6 months later, he said he was going to ask for his licence back because he was feeling fine. A few weeks later, he had an episode at home. They discovered it was indeed his brain and had to (as per their guidelines) ban him for longer.

Although that post affected me due to personal circumstances I got my knuckles rapped by BF. Looking back on it I could have used a different word to 'glad' I should have used 'sorry' instead. It may have changed the body of the post completely.

 

This is the side effect of a serious brain injury. This is my fault. Try as hard I can it's difficult for me.

 

The reason for this was I had been kept waiting in booth 6 in A&E FOR 90 mins because of something similar.

 

During this time I was still bleeding in my brain with every heart beat. In the end I had in excess of 3 lt of CSF drained from within the cranial cavity.

 

This is not known to many outside my circle of support but now it is. I do feel sorry in a way for the OP..

 

Unforseen circumstances have cost them dearly. This equipment is life saving and life changing. It shouldn't be wasted on an excuse for a day off of work.

 

Suffice to say having been reprimanded by the site team I now understand one has to be a bit more compassionate. This is very hard on our position.

 

I hope the site team will in time understand that I am one of about 5,000 people in the UK with my specific injury.

 

For 6 years now I have worked so hard to live a normal life and be helpful to my fellow humans.

 

How many people do you know that actually stand in the middle of a main road to light a smoke forgetting totally where they are? Sad to say I'm one of them.

 

I struggle with words and numbers. I am told I am clinical and without compassion or feelings. This is true. This is a side effect of my injury. I cannot get the normal feelings back because it is beyond repair. That's tuff on me.

 

N I am happy you understand what I am about thanks for that. That's 2 people in my corner... sorry for the longer reply..

People who don't use their brains. Which now means I'm without a much needed aid, I now need another appointment to see someone on the NHS and I spent 3 hours travelling to the hospital and back just to be told there's nothing they can do and I need to see someone. Oh hold on - they offered me the same bloody aid.

Nothing like being insulted by my upstairs neighbour. I'm physically disabled and have a learning disability. Apparently, I should be living in supported housing. She's also told me she doesn't care that I need to sleep during the day and will allow her grandchildren to make as much noise as they want. Will be interesting to see what the landlord says.

So, I went to see my GP on Tuesday because I suspect (I've had it before) my medication is giving me insomnia. The subject of my hearing came up. She prints out a letter sent to her from ENT. It turns out I now have permanent hearing loss in one ear due to the medication I'm on. :( Because it's something to do with the hairs, the damage is permanent.

getting stopped by the police due to a sidelight bulb being out! They said the glass ( not glass but plastic) is not safe,told them a lorry had threw some rubbish off and it hit the headlight causing the damage but oh no I now have to fix it asap, take the car back to them once done and prove it as the car now has a " mark" on it, meaning could be stopped again :/

 

Was also told could be prosecuted! shortly before this there were 2 other cars with no brake /back lights and one car with no lights on at all until it saw the Police car, the first car actually called for a ANPR car to come and check my car over!

 

Now searching for somewhere to get it fixed, and it is a big light as is on a KIA CARENS drivers side

So, the train was packed this morning. Despite many people standing in the doorways, a lot of people still decided that their bags needed a seat.

 

People who have no concept of what a quiet carriage is. I prefer sitting in there because I need the quiet. Instead, I had to put up with someone's screaming child. Just what I need when I've got migraine. :(

Have a look on eBay - the full units are on there for less than £50.00 and they're normally pretty easy to swap out.
