Anyway, I'm just off to pick up the usual delicious Friday evening Indian takeaway.

Re: How fed up would you be
If you were waiting for a surgery date?
You were told back in March that it would be in May as long as you got the immunisations done and the form back to them asap. So you ran around and got that done and back within a few days.
Then you waited some more and at the beginning of May were told you would hear soon, and then last week were told they were booking June's surgery dates now and that you might hear something soon, hopefully. So it's looking like July now for the op.
I wouldn't mind if they told me it would be December, I just need a date and the longer I wait the more stressed I get. There will be work shifts to swap, or give away, my colleagues are hanging on booking their vacations to fit in with when I am off.
Bloody hospitals.

I am fine now and very grateful still to be around, but could have done without the unexpected wait. If they had told me the surgery would not have been until late January in the first place, it would have been so much easier to deal with. having sais that, I am sure that the circumstances causing the delay were probably out with their control (Wards closed because of a bug, shortage of beds, ICU staff etc) .
Best of luck....but remember, it could be worse....
