Currently on train to London having just been informed that the forum I'm travelling to has now been cancelled due to the 'adverse weather'
Took me four hours, all roads and motorways were one lane of semi frozen slush. Articulated lorries taking chances and over taking each other, if one of those ****ers had jackknifed I'd have been stuck. Made it home though so worth the effort. Would be worse tomorrow as it's supposed to freeze firther over night. Saw loads of rear wheel drive beamers abandoned everywhere! **** all snow where I'm left from and where I arrived at, just loads in between. Will have a beer to celebrate I reckon.
Trying to convince Toby to get off my lap , so I can have my first beer for about 2 weeks . Was meant to work today , but being a southern softie , decided against it due to the Black ice in the roads nearby and outside our house , and a small matter of the A31 eastbound @ 06:00
Four medics in Kenya have reportedly been suspended after surgeons cut open the wrong man's head. It was apparently more than two hours into the procedure before they realised he had been mistaken for another patient. Two men were taken, unconscious, to Kenyatta National Hospital in Nairobi on Sunday, the Daily Nation reported. Both were admitted to ward 5A, which covers general surgery and trauma patients without fractures. One needed surgery to remove a blood clot from his brain, while the other simply required nursing and medication to heal a swelling to his head, caused by trauma. The clot had been spotted on a CT scan, but after the patients' identification tags got mixed up, the wrong man was wheeled into surgery, the newspaper said. Surgeons only discovered the mistake after failing to find a clot in the brain of the man whose head they had opened. please log in to view this image –– ADVERTISEMENT –– thanks for watching! Fortunately, both patients are said to be in a good condition. The one who had the clot might not now need surgery because his condition has improved significantly.
