There is an amusing story in The Register today. The headline is Tory MP accidentally endorses… German pr0n site and it is all about the old website for the Pease Pottage hospital campaign. What happened was that the registration for the domain name for the campaign (c4pph.org) was allowed to lapse and it was hijacked […]

Biocity Crawley hospital study
December 5th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Politics
The local papers report that the study into a new hospital has been released. They do not provide a link to it but it can be found here. Interesting stuff once you look beyond the frequent spelling mistakes/typos, normal consultant-speak, and heaps of case-study padding. I almost gave up at page 18 when I came […]

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 · Life
There was one main reason why I went down to Crawley Hospital’s ‘Urgent Treatment Centre’ last night ((apart from the obvious one)) – 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”.
Further On Up The Road

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!
May 31st, 2007 · Comments Off on Don’t mention the Hospital! · Politics
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 quite […]
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.

Crawley Hospital
February 1st, 2007 · 7 Comments · Politics
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.
