Thanks Gil; I was a bit wound up last week trying to fill the 4 page forms to travel and being obliged to pay for a pointless test, when all I really wanted to do is book and go. The system is over complicated and I think more politic driven than health driven.
(submarines, fishing etc etc)
Unfortunately; my Mum is now in end of life care.
One thing that I was impressed with at the weekend, was the medical staff in the hospital; absolutely brilliant.
