I took a morning off from writing today so that I could see an eye specialist at the hospital. I have to have laser surgery for broken blood vessels. I arrived at 9.10 for my 9,30 appointment. Standing room only so by 10.00 I asked where I was in the queue. "Soon," the receptionist said. I asked again at 11.00 and the same answer - "Soon." Then she explained that the specialist was one and a half hours behind due to emergencies and seeing in house patients being wheeled down from the wards. At 11.15 I asked for another appointment. Not until after July 17th, I said. Oh, that's okay, I can't fit you in again until August 21st.
Prime Minister, YOUR HEALTH SERVICE SUCKS! - but I still like you. Malta has a wonderful hospital - where are the computers? One hundred office staff running around with folders does not work, mate! Invite me for a chat and we'll sort it out.
I doubt I will get a call but I do wish he would put 2c tax on petrol to help pay for a decent computer network for doctors and records clerks.
