Originally posted by vwdan View Post...counting down to the end of the day, so that I can drive 2 hours home from site to meet my Mrs who'll then take me to A&E, as recommended by NHS Direct and the first aider this morning.
I'm only 5 days into a new contract - no way could I lose a days billing AND risk losing the contract!
For the truly bored, I'd previously knackered my toenail on an endurance run last year. At one point it seemed to be sorting itself out, but to be honest, progress had stalled and I probably should have got it checked. This morning I managed to kick the absolute tulip out of it on the bed at the hotel and things went badly. Lots of blood, lots of pain and it appears that it's either exposed or caused bits of nail to be where nail shouldn't be. Definitely looks like it's gonna need some kind of surgical intervention to sort and 10 hours on it's still hurting a LOT.
The first aider offered to drive me to A&E, but I said we should ring NHS Direct first who confirmed that I should go. Bandaged myself up for work and now I get to look forward to spending Friday night with the damaged drunks. Yay.Comment

Originally posted by d000hg View PostAccident AND Emergency - does that mean it's covering two separate areas or one combined? The former means he can go because it sure sounds like an accident even if it's no emergency. The latter means only those suffering from accidental emergencies should turn up
As a bonus, this also removed a lot of pedestrian traffic from around the entrance where ambulance cases are brought in.Comment
