Operation complete

I was phoned on Friday that my operation time was changed. Instead of coming to the hospital at 12.00 could I be there at 8.00? Of course!

I was there is plenty of time, along with a few others. As it turned out I was the third of three to be operated on that morning. The first chap went in at about 9.30 and was allowed to leave at 15.30. I didn't go the the theatre until 12.30...

The trouble then was that I had been allowed nothing much to drink since before midnight. So it meant that I was dehydrated, However I was eventually allowed home at 19.30. So only an hour more than the first chap but what a long exhausting day.

Cancellation of operation, when I tell everyone that...

 The hospital phoned to say that my operation on Monday was unfortunately cancelled. I didn't ask but I suspect that it was due to Covid or isolating due to someone in the operating team being pinged.

What an idiotic idea the Track and Trace is showing itself to be.

Also what a totally useless piece of tech the smart phone is proving to be. Quite simply the worst invention ever.
