About this deal

He's brash, unfriendly and over the years has grown a thick skin, keeping people very much at arms length.

If however the bus is full by the time it gets to your village, it means you will not be able to travel. I really enjoyed the cultural nods to films I might have watched from the 80s, and while some might argue that the pretext of some of the ripples from changing the past is a bit flimsy, this is a story of redemption in the most unusual of ways. This was a really nice departure from that, although I did have a few reservations because it was a very different style and character that I'm used to.If you're on the route of a service run, you do not have to book your bus journey as the bus will arrive there at a specific time anyway. I really disliked Bob to begin with due to his attitude, but as the story progressed I really started to like him and saw how he changed his thinking.

When you have a journey booked at a particular time, the bus is not classed as 'late' until at least 10 minutes after that specified time. As aDepositoryfor Government Documents, Northwestern University Library uses the SuDoc Classification System for all government documents. For example, if I hadn't said yes to a date with a man on Hinge, I wouldn’t be where I am now - a year and a half into our relationship, living in our own flat, and now I can’t imagine my life without him. I’m still not sure if I I like Bob or not, my mind keep changing throughout the book as we learnt more about him and what happened in his childhood. Surgeries can offer appointments with a range of health professionals including a GP, nurse, clinical pharmacist or physiotherapist, depending on your situation.Our main character, Bob (Rob/Robert), is an older, driven, successful and somewhat selfish man with a huge block of guilt on his shoulder from a tragedy in his past. If your treatment will last longer than 14 days, you'll have to register as a temporary or permanent resident. We would also just confirm the pickup and drop off locations in case they're different depending on the person travelling.

It definitely worked for this book though and the story wouldn't have worked if it had been done differently. Reminded of the film Sliding Doors - where one moment in time done differently could change your future, and also Scrooge, in A Christmas Carol, in how Bob was transformed. I loved Bob’s friendship with Scotty and the way he slowly became a better person as the story progressed, plus the 80s nostalgia! I am extremely thankful that this happened, as I have devoured the entire book in less than 24 hours.I thought this got off to a great start, with witty dialogue, plenty of laughs and that exciting sliding doors element.

In certain locations there are no designated bus stops and in those locations the booking office will book journeys from a pick up point that is considered safe and practical. Bob was a distinctly unlikeable character in the beginning, but also we understand why he became so cold and closed off. But as soon as the phone came into play the whole book changed for me an it actually became interesting. His best friend from childhood, Scotty, is married and has 3 children with the girl Bob used to bully at school, Kirsty. His exterior persona especially working at FitzSimmons and Bloomfield Entertainment is ruthless, detached, cutthroat and professional.

If you're registered with a GP surgery, you can use their online services to book, check or cancel appointments with a healthcare professional. I can’t say much more without going into spoilers, but it does have a kind of neat twist towards the end, even if it goes a bit panto. The story follows Bob as he finds an old phone which allows him to talk to his family in the 80s and effectively influence his timeline.
