    Nice pali!

      I've taken advantage of the lack of other patients in the room to go and have a look out of the window, which lies beyond the bed to my right.

      It's a first floor window and below it is a path and a large pile of gravel, or possibly grit for gritting the roads around the hospital grounds. It's very big by pile-of-stuff standards in an urban environment, though obviously not that big in comparison to the piles one sees at the Works Unit on the M1 just south of junction 20.

      No sign of any snow, though.

        If there is snow later in the season, and you nee grit, you know where to find some!

        What happened to the other patients? Did you start talking to them about assembler code and they suddenly got well?

          Any sign of an angiogram yet?

                The missus doesn’t spot the axe and your mind races to a happy place.

                  Done; but not dusted

                  They took me down for the angiogram just after half two. It all went pretty much as expected on my end. However, it turned out the problem revealed was a blockage of the Left Main Stem. And the bigger problem was that when he brought the catheter anywhere near it to attempt to start the process of putting a stent in, the artery started to collapse. When the catheter was withdrawn it immediately recovered; it's a thing that happens sometimes, but the upshot is: no stent for me

                  So now I'm in the Coronary Care Unit hooked up to all the things that they thought I wasn't sick enough to need since Sunday, waiting to see a surgeon about a bypass

                    Oh no. I am sorry to hear that.

                      I guess the Scotch Broth has had it.
