Following the conversation with my consultant's secretary in which she said he would see me "in due course" I wasn't holding out much hope of an early appointment.

Got a letter today, I see him on Thursday, yes, your heard it, thursday of THIS week. Ok, no need to get excited, the man himself may not be there and I may see one of his lakies or registrars as they like to be called. But at least I have an appointment, not bad as my last test was 15th November!

Now all I have to do is to convince them I'm ill............

Did anyone see this last night? The first of a 3 parter, set at my local hospital (the one I refuse to attend) Gave a great insight into why the NHS is failing.

What Gerry found:

Theatres sat empty because "no one wants to work Fridays" - why not? Every other proffession is expected to put in at least a 5 day week.
A chief exec who is so afraid of the consultants that he fails to manage.
Staff who can spot areas for improvement but are ignored by those that can change things.

I wonder if tonight he will mention how much Private work is done by the consultants on NHS time. Perhaps do an old fashioned time and motion study on the consultants?

I apologise for not being around, and when I am I don't stay long and may not answer comments or comment. Our broadband resembles a prozzys knickers at the moment (up and down a lot)

Hopefully it will be sorted soon
