Well, as I type this, i'm waiting in a theatre staff room. Everyone else is dressed in blue scrubs and there's me and a colleague in uniform, and ambulance jackets sticking out like sore thumbs. The news is on the telly, showing storms that have hit the uk. Airports closed, flooded towns and chaos further south. I've got 93 miles to do on blues with an organ for transplant when its ready. I've already driven 134 miles from base to here, so I know what the roads are like, wet, greasy, and less than perfect visibility. Still, that's what i'm here for, sit and wait, then off, maximum drive..
: As it happened, the Lungs weren't suitable for transplant, so ended up with a further journey south, to take a patient into another hospital for transplant, then to be given a Kidney from the original hospital, to be taken 30 miles from home, tuning it into a long day with lots of mileage, and no blues... Bah!!
