Not going to help much if you have an emergency. It's quite scary the volume of stories about people who never saw an ambulance arrive. You just kind of assume that if you call 999 help will arrive.Originally posted by xoggoth View PostOriginally posted by MaryPoppinsOriginally posted by vetranComment

A few years ago, my wife had a serious condition requiring surgery, and we looked into going to a private hospital but we couldn't find one that was able to treat her.
Unfortunately, at the local NHS hospital, there wasn't even the option of paying for a private room. She was in a surgical ward which, due to a shortage of beds, ended up as a holding area for bed-blocking dementia patients. Some of them were awake in the middle of the night, wandering around the ward, stumbling into patients recovering from surgery. It was a nightmare but, on the plus side, it did have the effect of making my wife get well enough to come home PDQ.
I get the impression that for the really serious life-threatening tulip, the NHS is the only option.Last edited by DealorNoDeal; 11 November 2022, 12:41.Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.Comment

Because contractors are money grabbing scum and as soon as one went on strike, another would step in and take the money.Originally posted by xoggoth View PostFirst Law of Contracting: Only the strong surviveComment
