    I've written a strongly worded letter to my local radiographer. However I've written it on x-ray sensitive film... I hope they take proper precautions.

    An admirable service you are doing I must say. Give me another... 5 and a half years and I'll be joining the junior ranks of the NHS, wooo!

    Re: The NHS is rubbish

    I've been having trouble for months with my finger joints where some of them lock closed in the mornings and my knuckles generally ache for the first couple of hours each day. Getting a GP appointment is awkward for me, so I tried using the walk in clinic in town. It took me an hour and a quarter to be seen by someone, who then took less than a minute to tell me to take some ibuprofen for a few days... which is what I've been doing anyway.

    Bah!

    On the other hand, I managed to get an appointment with my GP the next week and things are getting sorted now. I'm just bitter at what a waste of time the walk in clinic was.

    90 seconds! It's disgusting.

    I'm writing to the Daily Mail and my MP as we speak.
    I had to wait 15 minutes to get checked out to make sure I didn't have anything more than a nasty bout of man flu last week, in and out (including blood tests) in under 2 hours

    Worryingly I still have a massive bruise down about 1/3 of my arm where they took the blood sample from though.... and it was almost a week ago
