didn't need to go to hospital for that kind of injury as it takes tooooooo long.
I prefer to pay after hours rather than go to a&e as it's quicker, easier to get to and altogether more pleasant. Well that's in Auckland city anyway.

I know that you can get free service but i can afford to pay so do

Ambulances are free in some instances UK but not all some call outs are chargeable.
