We recently visited Corbridge and stayed for a few days to visit our daughter. We were very impressed with Halcyon House Cafe in the Square in Corbridge. The food was good and the coffee was very good too. The owners are very friendly, and produce homemade food. We would definitely recommend them - bacon butties good too.

East Harling Pharmacy

Well what a welcome today. I walked into the Chemsits today at 0855 as the sign on the door said ‘open’ which normally means come on in. On entering Ineas warmly greatest by a “Were not open, we don’t open until 9!” But it says open, “that must be from last week.” We’ll also sleeve the sign and the door open so you can tell everyone else they are not open when the sign still says open. At 9am 3 customers walk-in and again “we are not open until 9am”. It is 9 am? “We need time to set up” Talk about being stressed. “We have locum@ And ? He seems calm. Why not lock the door until you are ready? Then I get my cream and say thank you I won’t be coming back. Unbelievable so had to bite my tongue — i…@darrenlewitt.comreveal  

Aqta Trading Ltd

Front of building is in a disgusting mess and little investment is being made to address repairs and a constant leaking pipe that makes the pavement slimy. Rubbish & Litter constantly blights the area yet most of the employees sit on a chair behind the till all day to even care to notice it’s their responsibility to keep clean. Do not use this store if hygiene is important to you. —  

Norwood Road Branch, The Southall Medical Centre

We are a care home and have recently registered our residents to the GP surgery. We have sent another three clients for registration which have not been processed. We found the receptionist team member not helpful in dealing with queries and appeared irritable when we were asking her questions as if we were taking her time. I sent 2 emails requesting for a meeting with the practice manager but never received a response. We feel the surgery is not interested in helping us. —  

They didn’t deliver my food and would not pick up the phone they have no address so I can’t do anything about it —

Gps Healthcare - Knowle Surgery

I came to the surgery yesterday and left a urine infection. I am now told that i should have made an appointment and that the sample has been discarded without anyone checking it . As i have kidney failure I find this to be not acceptable . It would only have taken a few seconds to check if it was clear or not . Now i have to stsrt ahain tomorrow when i probably wont be able to get an appointment ! Poor service ! —

Hello
I am on the committee for Tutbury Market and we have another event scheduled for 24th September.
I have noted that you were at Barton Marina last week and you would most certainly be a welcome addition to our market.
The last market on 9/7 was a huge success and we are fully expecting it to be the same once again.

Kind regards

Moorclose High School

Hi, I was a student at Moorclose Secondary Modern School, leaving in 1959. I served an apprenticeship in tool making with Hawker Siddeley and then joined the research dept to eventually become technologist team leader with a PHd in Particle physics. Migrating in 1977 to Australia and after gaining my builder's ticket I built 54 houses for clients. I also established a furniture manufacturing company and made 10,000 leather lounges in 23 years. I am now approaching 80YO.
I would like to express my gratitude to the Moorclose Sec Mod School for the education and technical ability I gained whilst attending.
Many thanks, Graham Robert Greenhalgh. — fore…@gmail.comreveal

We visited the Grand Pavilion cafe today Sunday and sorry to say I was very disappointed although I have been before several times as we are local. We ordered coffees which after 20 minutes I had to check up to see where they were, only to find that my order had been lost so they
had to bring them late. The food we had was ok but the cutlery was not shiny, the teaspoons for the coffee also needed a good wash as did the cups. There was a big dog, a husky type at a table on the right hand side of the counter. The staff did their best I am sure, but they did
seem to be not trained enough. I didn't complain at the time as i was with family and didn't want to spoil the occasion. I should be glad
of your input, thank you. P.S. I hate complaining! — danc…@yahoo.co.ukreveal
