When will companies realise that giving away free stuff to people like Lottie, they are actually losing custom. The gazebo (and garden furniture) are actually local to me and giving her a gazebo that's over £2k makes me not want to use them.
Also that grass will be fu**ed as the hosepipe ban takes effect in Kent on the 26th, hope her neighbours report her if they see them using a hose!

She clearly begged enough to be given a fairly large discount (ad rather than gifted). Yet another brand that loses face by giving in to influencers. Didn't click through her link so she's not getting that website traffic allocated to her.

She won't be in the hosepipe ban area as she will be Southern Water and it's South East Water that have the ban. Still wouldn't hurt at all to cut down on water use though, but it won't be a hosepipe ban that kills off that grass, rather her basic inability to look after anything (offspring aside as she's clearly just about managing that 😂)
 
I’m so glad that she shared where she got the Pergola from. As a fellow Medway maggot I was looking for one urgently that was local. I have a spare £2,100 just sitting in my bank account waiting to be spent on my garden which is an absolute necessity right now.

Ok, I may be bitter about money, but she is TONE DEAF.

Can’t wait for 38 years time when she goes to claim a pension, oh, you never paid into the system? duck off then, you aren’t getting a bean.

Oh shut up Grottie. Why does she have to make everything about ADHD now?

Also why the need to post that really really unflattering picture? 🙃

She is probably trying to be funny but Ross always looks miserable and completely over her tit… so maybe it’s time for her to start listening to others?

It might just be the angle of the photo but her food portion looks enormous!

It was… but despite her constantly talking about IBS and so on, I doubt she eats as she should and I can see this being their only proper meal the whole day. Which also will absolutely cause an IBS flare up and she will complain about it for a month.

This whole thing with the meds. I 100% get the anxiety over forgetting to put in your repeat for anxiety meds and how worrying it could be to think you'd miss a dose. It can genuinely be crippling.

However.... I go to the same surgery. If you've messed up and they have the capacity they will sort it. They have a phone line that works and they answer. I've had to ring twice in the last 2 weeks and the longest I've waited for an answer was about 7 minutes and they have the facility of a call back service which is what I did on that 7 minute call so they call back when you're number 1 in the queue. They're also not ogres that will refuse to do a prescription if you've forgotten, especially as they can see she's a relatively new mum and is spinning the plates of that. It is, however, Monday morning, and she's probably rung/gone in there as soon as they open when they will be getting loads of econsults/calls so probably couldn't do it right that minute for her so she's kicked off.

My biggest issue however is her saying she's never heard people talk openly about being on meds and feels the need to do that. That's absolute bollocks. I'm almost 100% certain she has engaged with other influencers who have posted about meds and posted about them herself a few times, especially around mental health awareness week. But of course, Lottie is the first person to ever talk about them on social media 🙄
 
She is an adult, who held a full time job for years. I appreciate ADHD must be difficult to manage with a new baby but just set up a repeating event in your calendar to remind you.

If it were anyone else I'd be more sympathetic but her diagnosis of ADHD is questionable as is.

Most people would kick themselves and get on with it and as the poster above said GPs have the capacity to sort it.

I know it's not the same but in the past I've I forgot to book in for repeat birth control the nurse was able to write me a prescription to just collect as a one off without any appointment, etc.

I dont have ADHD and have only rememberer to reorder my prescription on the very last week, but it is just her to say it's ADHD related. People get busy lives as as long as its not an every month thing, the GP are fine. There is one receptionist who has a face like she's chewing a bee when you're dealing with her but even then, she has an ounce of compassion for a mistake. They have an online tool for repeats too so as you say, maybe a calender reminder might be the best bet for her.

100% she cried at them and made an absolute idiot of herself in front of an open waiting room 😂.
