    Mrs PRC had a private room in an NHS hospital. So the birth part was all NHS but she didn't have to recover in a ward full of the great unwashed.
    For our first the maternity ward in our local NHS hospital was empty when we arrived so we saw little point in paying for the small private room, my wife stayed for 3 days and though the ward did fill it wasn't full of the ghastly people you speak of.

    Maybe move to a nicer area.

    BTW our 2nd is due today.
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

          To be fair, the ward wasn't full for us either. It was more a case of wanting to be sure of some peace and quiet, oh and £100 is hardly going to break the bank is it?

          Good luck with No. 2

                      Thought you had ceased posting until you made your first second million quid?
