Speakers Corner CommentsI have Parkinson’s and love to write poetry so here is …… My Ode To Parkinson’s…. Parkinson’s is the most terrible disease, My legs want to move but my feet…..they just freeze. My shoes they don’t fit ‘cos my feet are so fat, Parkinson’s and I don’t get on, and that’s that!! Is this all I’ve got for the rest of my days? The shuffling, the tremors, my brain in a haze? All that I wanted was to quietly retire,…. Walk, the dog, read the paper, relax by the fire. My cocktail of tablets keep my tremors at bay, As long as I take them at the same time each day. Forget at my peril and I’ll soon feel so ill, All because of that one little Madopar pill.. So, I waddle along in my own little way, With my wiring mixed up and my satnav astray. My life was mapped out but not anymore, ‘Cos I seem to be permanently stuck to the floor!!!ViewDate:

Speakers Corner CommentsI keep hearing about more money needed for our struggling NHS and I agree with most of the points made, but no one has suggested that the general public need to be educated as to when they need to use their A&E department. Having spent quite a lot of time in that department I have noticed that sore throats and other very minor problems should not be treated in A&E when the local pharmacy can treat minor ailments and save the NHS both time and money. It’s time that we were more educated about how to use both our A&E department and our local pharmacy.ViewDate:

Win a 3-night stay in the spectacular Scottish HighlandsI’ve not been to Scotland for a few years but would love to visit again. Heard you can visit Balmoral but it’s a bit expensive I’m told.ViewDate:
