I just read a story about a Leicestershire hospital that has spent an entire years electricty budget in the last few days. The culprit is being sought....

Sounds like good news.

Cath Lab was probably staffed by locums who have been declared IR35 caught, and are no longer prepared to provide their services thereby causing queues of people so long they have to provide beds. You should ask

Lunch has been the all-day breakfast again

Didn't bother with a dessert today. Might have a sponge pudding this evening

Chap next to me complained of a recurrence of his chest pains earlier. Just now, while he was eating his dinner and chatting with his wife, a couple of nurses swooped in, made him lie down, and whisked him away, explaining that no they couldn't wait, they had to take him now

They took his dinner with him to finish at the other end of the journey, though

I imagine there's a huge control centre in an underground cavern, with charts and things holographically projected and a voice on a Tannoy saying things like "Team B916 to Sector 5" from time to time

Looks like it works then

That would explain where all the money is going then. I'd like the NHS to be run from a hollowed out volcano.

If the howling coming from the stove is anything to go by, Storm ChutneySpoon* is winding itself up. I haven't drawn the curtains yet today, and since it'll be dark in an hour or so I don't think i'll bother. There's another 25kg bag of coal lurking in the cellar so there's really no need to stir my arse at all today.

* I think it's C this time, but what it's called....

beef short ribs

A discovery I made in Waitrose sometime this spring. They achieved 1000/10 at the first attempt
