That's why we can't get to see a doctor! The government is sponsoring trained physicians like Patrick Vallance to lecture us on air travel.

Well, I can't blame the man himself. It's probably easier than looking at people's piles and taking blood pressure.

COP(insert any number between 20 and 500 - that gravy train is gonna keep on rollin') is not a good place to be telling people to give up flying and eating steak, venison, etc.

I'll consider changing my diet when the luvies only get prepacked sandwiches and bottled water at their love ins. And also when the restaurants in the Houses of Parliament on serve only vegetarian meals and cups of tea. Share the pain!

Sam - you are probably right. Our doctors seem to spend hours on their website telling us in enormous detail why they have no time to see us.

Doonhamer - yes, somehow I don't think they are munching through lentils and locusts.

DJ - it's the most conspicuous decision of all - "we aren't about to share the pain".

dearieme - and curiously popular.
