Well, more entertainment so thank you all!
As Elfin says, I do get rather 'worked up' which unfortunately is due to not riding my bike. 🙁
dr_death - gosh, that's an eye-opener. Hopefully they do get plenty of extra revenue from car parking charges?
I suggest you ride your bike CG. Lots.
CG - Again, most don't. When the PFI people build the hospital they usually take over all if its grounds as well and then farm out the car parking to another private company. More profits for private business I'm afraid!
There are a couple of good articles about the mess we have made with PFI un the Guardian this weekend, it's going to end up costing the taxpayer around £65 Billion over the next 30 years for about £10 Billion of investment by the private companies.... I'll dig out the links when I'm back at my desktop.
Just report it to Health and Safety Officer who will assess the situation.
If it is a danger then they will tell security to stop these people bringing in their drinks -besides its not healthy all that sugar and caffine, recycling and more waste costs the hospital - send that to the CFO of the hospital then it will get done.
And relax.
😆send that to the CFO of the hospital then it will get done
you guys !
the mess
Indeed, Dr Death. Especially fugging enraging when you know how hard people are working at the sharp end. And doubly so knowing that most could see this coming. Funny how people deride "Socialism", when NuLab were so happy for our infrastructure to be shafted by private sector interests.

SGH - when they contracted out the catering (and replaced patient meals with microwaved stuff), they closed most of the on-site catering/kitchen facilities. Quality in the staff canteen went down, whilst prices (drum roll) went up. Needless to say, megcorp Compass are just fine with that.
