I think you are right Boboff. I was in an NHS hospital for 4 nights last April and the nurses (in fact all the staff) were lovely and yet people were whinging, mainly about things the nursing staff had no control over and weren't an issue anyway. I'm not sure why people feel obliged to complain in that way, I suppose it's a bit like some people on package holidays, they are looking for things to moan about from the outset. I suppose it's just a conversational gambit - rather like the usual one, the weather - if they are confined in a ward they don't have that to comment on!

Anyway, I hope you are quickly in and out MW, and feeling great for Xmas.
Growing old is much better then the alternative!

No I won't use a smiley because I've decided to turn into Boboff, as he's turned all nice all of a sudden. Grumble grumble.

@KB Thanks :iconbiggrin:

@Boboff, of course I'll be nice to the poor overworked nurses, (& it's not been 'free': so far we've had to pay out over £100 for the wretched tablets 'cos the doc wasn't allowed to prescribe more than a week's worth at a time (I was on for months!), the hospital will do the op for free, but then I'll have more prescriptions. If Mr MW earnt about £500 per annum less I'd qualify for free 'scripts, as it is we have about £50 a week for food & £7.40 is a big chunk of that!) *and breath!

@MMM Ta :hugish:

MW
Buy a pre payment script for £104.00 and claim all your script costs back. You will need to get the chemist to give you a form which they will freely , or should freely do and then when you have paid the £104.00 (which can be spread over 10 monthly installments of £10.40) you can claim back all previous med costs. Make sure that the start date of your pre payment certificate is 1 day before the first script date and all will be ok. I'm on a lor of pain meds and this is how i save £100's per year. My drugs are on the CD register so I can only get 1 month at a time but it saves me around £50 a month.

Hope that helps.
