...things that amuse me 2a: - that you'd try and rapidly gain access to nursing homes - if they really want you, they'll let you in. - that in the cold environs of London you would not have the odd trauma/medical that is wrapped in mutiple layers of clothing and is genuinely sick/unconscious and you really need to remove their clothing for fear of embarressment (two r's or two s's - can never really remember) by a picky triage nurse. My old trusty shears are nearly 8 years old and still work better than the service supplied el-cheapo ones. Happy clothes shearing or door opening!
