Many thanks to Danivon for bringing to my attention this story in advance of the local papers coming out. It is quite a hilarious story really. The gist of it is:

Down At The Doctors
September 26th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Uncategorized
There was one main reason why I went down to Crawley Hospital’s ‘Urgent Treatment Centre’ last night1 - I find normal GP surgeries inconvenient. That’s why I like the concept of the polyclinics.

King Of Pain

3:30am. I should think about going to bed now, after having only recently got back from hospital after possibly the most painful and least dignified night of my life. Nobody in their right minds needs to know details: for a clue just re-arrange the words “drain”, “groin” and “abcess”.

On Thursday Jayne went into hospital for a few hours as an out-patient to have some work done on her hip. It was supposed to be urgent, but she had it postponed until the school holidays so she would not have to take any time off work - not something I would have done I [...]
Don’t mention the Hospital!

There seems to be a conspiracy to never let anything positive about Crawley Hospital be published. It is only ever mentioned in connection with horror stories, or general doom and gloom.
In fact there is a sizeable minority in the town who think that the hospital closed down completely. We have used the place [...]
Surrey Hospital Petition

Last night we went out in Tilgate delivering UAF leaflets. There were 10 people who turned up and in little more than an hour we covered about half the ward. We could have done more, but I wanted to save some leaflets for Furnace Green.

It seems you can’t turn around without another proposal for a new hospital in Crawley slapping you in the face. This week it is Wilky Property Holdings and their partners with plans for a business centre, luxury homes and a hospital near the airport.
They already have a name for the development, Gatwick Green, and [...]
Caring Conservatives - my arse!

To recap: David Cameron came to town the other week and visited a school. He was full of praise for the new buildings and the provision of computers, but had to be heavily prompted to mention the quality of the pupils.

Suffering for your politics
March 17th, 2006 · No Comments · Life
Jayne spent all day in the Labour office helping out today, and at one point she was popping out to get some milk when she slipped on the stairs. Although it hurt a bit, the pain got worse during the day.
I know it must have been bad because I had to drive home when [...]
Crawley Hospital

I had to go down to Crawley hospital this evening with the eldest boy to get the stitches removed from his arm. The hospital has had a lot of reorganisation lately and the casualty department has been downgraded to a minor injuries unit or walk-in centre or whatever they call it. This [...]
