I have been seething since reading his post with regard to the ambulance service. I was very tempted to subscribe to the blog just so that I could have a rant about what he had said. I am glad I didn't as it wouldn't have been anywhere near as good as yours. I hope he reads your blog today and posts his own comments here as I think he has a lot to apologise for. His playground insults aside I also agree that he has a great deal of sensible things to say, but he cannot tar everyone with the same brush, just like your posts where you make a statement but are always quick to add that there are good 'nursing homes, gps etc' out there. There are good ambulance staff out there, there are brilliant pro-ambulance GPs as well, there are also lots of people with the same dim and un-educated view that Dr C has with regard to ambulance staff and other health care practitioners. If everyone where perfect then this world would be a very boring one. I make no apologies for my spelling and grammer, I am not an english teacher and I have a good enough grasp of the language and spelling etc to get by. I am sure everyone can read what I write and understand it.
