What a shame!!!! I bet you were both really naffed off, but we will be pleased to see you on friday.

It's sad but true that the way beds are managed is to close them. The NHS has lost so many beds in the last 10 years it's ridiculous. People are going home within 3 or 4 days after major operations and surgical beds are blocked by elderly medical patients because there aren't enough medical beds at this time of the year to cope with the vast amount of elderly medically ill.
