I will have to join this discussion later today -got to travel to Whitefield for that denture fitting (which is costing me an arm and 3 legs- because I cant get an NHS dentist and cant eat anything but mush).
So I'm not in a mood for chat after only 4 hours sleep and 6 buses to use to get there and back
ps - got let off the £4 parking fee by flashing my disabled bus pass -every cloud has its silver lining

The new hospital has 2 cafe's in the entrance area also a coffee shop and staff cafeteria at the other end of the hospital, a supermarket style shop where you can buy drinks and sandwiches and pretty much anything else you might need, dont know what time it closes though. I dont understand why you would have to pay for parking Margaret when it took you 6 buses to get there:confused:
Hope your finger's ok though I'm cringing just thinking about it.

Thank the good Lord for the Health Service, just been for my 3 monthly CT Scan and Blood results, yippee all clear for another 3 months. Is there no A&E at Accrington Victoria for minor injuies like cut fingers and the like?, I thought it was open untill 9pm, It was last time I cut my finger on a corned beef tin.

There is but I think you are better going to Blackburn.

I'm sorry I wasnt clear about that - drove my car to hosp last night, but used bus to Whitefield today. I am not fit to drive to Whitefield because I have blurred vision in one eye (hopefully a temp condition- Blepharitis a few weks back)

Considering the amount of drunks we get in there at the weekend, the vending machines would be vandalised in no time, also, many people visiting A&E end up being admitted for surgery, even if it is only to reduce a fracture. Eating and drinking prior to seeing the doctor may delay any surgery that is necessary. I'll take a packed lunch with me next time I go. :D

Re: The NHS is rediculous

Thank's to all my friends and anyone who knows me, I am over the moon with the results as I was a born 'pessimist'. Her indoors Bernadete and myself have been out celebrating, no more hospital till August, Benidorm here we come, anyone who is having a raw deal keep up the pressure, the more you shout the more likeley you are to be heard. Thank's again 'love to you all'. Ian.XXX.
