Must be at least a week since we last discussed them.I have spare time on my hands so I will kick off...... I am partly influenced to rant by the new godawful food hygiene ads.People with their faces blurred talk about how they got food poisoning.Is food poisoning something you ought to be ashamed of?I got gandhis revenge…

The impression from those adverts is that VHI\Laya etc. have their own fully kitted out hospitals.... They don't.... they have small private clinics which are more akin to a Doctors surgery for very specialised stuff like Scans and physio.... if there's anything seriously wrong with you, its off to the main hospital A&E with ya....where you Queue up like everybody else.
(I know some private hospitals have sort of A&E type setups, but from my own experience they are limited enough too, and of course only open during office hours).
