[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2180483, member: 493719"] Morning [USER=468536]@DJC3[/USER] No, it's all just a blank to him. On the subject of hospitals. Lots of experience sadly, and while i get the crush of people who are ill etc. it's not always those sick taking up space...though you are so right about the winter flu/viruses, etc as i recall the weekends were the worst....by far.:wideyed: it did used to make my blood boil, that we got shunted further down the line while some idiot who drank too much, was dealt with asap, because they might choke, had fell or were just too disruptive..(Security guards in an A&E dept..please :rolleyes:) god knows how the doctors and nurses cope with that kind of up close threat over time. saints the lot of them. I sound cold and hard, but iv'e never been like that EVER. drunk yep, stupid, yep..but too dumb to stop when i couldn't stand...:banghead: in London we have a drunk bus, and during the new years they set up tents in the parks to treat.. sounds like a good system, not clogging up the system, and once assessed, just need to turn ( like sausages on a griddle now and again) until they awake from their slumber and lumber off home or back to the off licence to start all over again...probably I'd happily make those who use /abuse the system PAY. Treat, get details..if they're out good chance they have cards & id then BILL them from the minute they call an ambulance to the minute they leave (in fact most likely be of major benefit, if the bills i got was anything like close.:woot: taking several hundred pounds out of their wallet, might just make the trip back to A&E each weekend less enticing and deffo a one off...:D ) yes i'm aware it will never happen, lets hope all those thinking that's a good place to be never have the joy of sitting opposite said drunken idiots and hers mates usually, shouting and demanding a NURSE NOW because fluffy has coughed or just puked..again.:rolleyes: while our loved ones lay quietly in pain. and move slowly further down the queue.
