I had an allergic reaction to something this morning and my enormous antihistamines didn't shift it so my GP sent me to A and E.
Sat there with my Mum after being triaged and was scrolling through Facebook... My video volume was switched on. Suddenly a video burst into life. It was a take off of Frozen and instead of Let it Go she was singing "FUCK IT ALL FUCK IT ALL...."really loudly. I kept trying to switch it off and it kept starting again. To say my mum was unimpressed is putting it mildly!! Blush
Was seen and sent home on two and a quarter hours instead of the five it said on the screen. Now chilling with a pink gin and tonic in a can...

Ha! Good work. Reminds me of the time we went to pick up my dad who'd been taken really ill with what turned out to be a UTI. He's sitting in the Very Busy waiting area recounting all his symptoms at high volume (he's going a bit deaf).

"SO BECAUSE I'VE GOT A BURNING SENSATION IN THE TIP OF THE PENIS"

Oh I have two embarrassing hospital Stories....

I'd broken my big toe and needed to go early. I was at the the hospital for 8am. In the waiting room BBC News was on the screens and it was being announced that Ian Watkins had been arrested for his horrific crimes. Guess who was wearing a Lost Prophets hoodie.

My second was again, early appointment with DD. I'd got the exact change and it was in the days before there was any other way to pay. My last pound coin would not go in. The queue was building behind me. I'd remembered a pretty gross trick from slot machines as a kid where if you wet the coin it worked. So there I stood, licking a £1 and repeatedly pushing it through.
As it became more and more obvious this wasn't working there was a tap on my shoulder and what can only be described as the hottest junior doctor in the world was holding out a £1 coin. I retrieved mine from the slot, wiped it on my sleeve and handed it to him in exchange where he took it VERY tentatively with an awkward smile.
DD was howling when I got back to the car. Thankfully he wasn't her Doctor.
