"RTÉ workers have worked extremely hard since March and have held public figures to account for their actions. I have been contacted by a number of members who believe this incident has the capacity to undermine that hard earned trust and confidence.

If one were to write a rap about the noisey individuals on the way to Málaga,one might incur the wrath of a mod

GDPR..., had bloods taken at GP this morning, went to pay when I overheard the practice manager was talking to a patient, with speakerphone turned FULL VOLUME. I heard the patient's full name, address, date of birth, phone number, personal medical history, travel history, latest intimate symptoms, name and symptoms of another relative.

After the call ended my payment was taken, and I duly requested that my blood results should be sent to my consultant at the hospital, but was told: "Due to GPDR we are not allowed to reveal your private medical details to any consultant. You must come to the surgery, we will give you a print-out (can no longer be emailed to me), and it's up to you to use that print-out as you wish.

You couldn't make it up.

So they expect you to endanger yourself and others by physically showing up to collect the results,yet they will only email a script to the pharmacy. Fr. Ted stuff

I got on the plane on me way to Spain,
With just a bottle of of water and 2 Trackers*,
I was going to the sun to ease me pain,
When onto the plane came a bunch of.......boisterous Individuals from Limerick so to speak.

To collect it next Wednesday. De cost of de bloods at GP is not far off de Beacon and I had to wait weeks for an appointment. My consultant must be very puzzled why he hasn't got them yet. He was trying to save me a few quid, always does that for his patients and only charges €120 for his long consultation.

Was the tracker on their ankles caller, ?

Ye are gonna think I'm making this up...

After I came out of GP I went to local supermarket and ended up in a long queue. A conversation was taking place in nearby queue, and it was about a GP with same name as one belonging to the practice I attend. They were giving out about people not wearing masks, and one said they had been horrified to attend named doctor who refused to don a mask themselves. That's the second doctor of the practice whom I've known about not wearing a mask. And folk wonder why I go down with stuff.

I am shocked, SHOCKED I say to discover this attitude. Shure Joe is salt o' de eart, man of de peeple.

"Where do you go to dear Joseph" to the tune of "Where do you go to my lovely", original Lyrics by Peter Starstedt.

"Where do you go to dear Joseph,
When you are done for the day?
After a gruelling days work,
I relax with a cup of tay.
(yes I do, yes I do)

"I'm a salt of de eart,
Wurkin class from Ballyfermot,
My clothes are all made by Ben Dunne,
I cry when I see Cleery's is shut.
(So to speak, So to speak, So to speak)

300 thousand a ye-or
Isn't that much to be paid.
I give a few bob to charidee,
And a few quid to the fire brigade!
(yes I do, yes I do)"

Hosting de radio is easy,
There are days when its a doddle,
Three o'clock isn't long coming
And home for tea and coddle!

(I do be loving the bit coddle so to speak)"

At least he made an effort when doing it, could you imagine Duffy's sneering tone.

Hangings too good for people like him, it's a good kick in the arse he needs.

If it were a non RTÉ related story, they would label it Retirement Partygate.

I have had half a mind to leave the practice, but the head person is pleasant, it's the divil I know. The more I think of it the more I'm annoyed about it and I'm going to get even more angry over the days and months. Whoy didn't I stand up and say something to the practice manager? I'm a coward, that's why. I'm in a somewhat vulnerable position, that manager holds the key to appointments and all communication in the practice. But what if those were my entire intimate personal details being broadcast aloud in my own voice through the speakerphone, and that a n'er do well type (including my ex boss) were standing there listening? I'm actually really annoyed about it the more I think of it.

Never mind the irony of having to collect the printout of my blood results.This is the same practice that never got me tested or looked after when I arrived home ill from Namibia, so in a way I have nothing to lose. There are few GPs out there, and quite frankly I'm yet to hear of a good one anywhere in my district. When I ask around, the general thing I keep hearing is that people in the wider area are generally putting up with their doctors and have many have changed practice, not to find much of an improvement. In one way I know how to negotiate with the practice and bypass them if I imagine things are getting beyond their capabilities. During the summer I attended a super thorough and lovely GP in Clifden, who proved to me that there is such a thing out there a an occasional decent one.
