My 80 year old mother-in-law had a flare up of an eye condition today, requiring a trip to A&E. Got to Walsgrave only to find the place was so rammed with pissed up twats that she couldn't even get in the door let alone be seen by anyone. Thankfully she was able to get some minor treatment at the Asda pharmacy nearby, enough to hold her over till she can see the GP on Monday.
I suppose it's sort of understandable, possibly a once in a lifetime event to celebrate and the booze makes us all do stupid shit sometimes but still utterly depressing that little old ladies can't get medical attention when they need it cos some prick headbutted his best mate for looking at him funny....
