We all can tell dreadful tales about the NHS - but when you need it in an emergency, it's fantastic - everything you need is there as you need it.

The system is crap but the staff are fantastic. 99% of staff really do care about their patients, it's a pity the other 1% give it a bad name. But that goes for most big companies.
Nurses have the same red tape problem as the police have. They see a patient for 10 minutes and spend the next 30 mins writing reports!

I like that. It's amazing how often I've been at the coast somewhere and never looked down. A lesson well learned.

I feel that way about Sony, I will never buy anything made by Sony again. Reason ? Tried to upgrade a Vaio laptop from Vista to Windows 7 finished up had to write my own eject CD programme after restoring Vista from the Restore discs produced when computer was new as per Sony instructions. I didn't realise to upgrade the OS meant buying another laptop. Also previous talk of rootkits etc.

I feel the same way about mobile phones. I went to Carphone Warehouse, (other outlets are available!,), wanted a phone. You cannot now buy a moby that just makes phone calls - it has to have a camera, email, internet, touch screen, facebook, twitter etc .

Very informative, great shots. I'm certainly going to have a go at this next summer, if we get one.
It does also seem to be a bit of an advert for N***n. (my apologies for the bad language!)
