I'm carrying our equipment down to the river. We have two patients, both of which have spent time in the freezing Thames. Police and firefighters are already there, they have done their best to dry the pair off - our patients are wearing borrowed hi-vis jackets - ones that say 'Police'.

Sick people need to be in hospital - it is better to get there in nine minutes and be able to transport them than to get there in seven and have to wait half an hour for a proper 'truck'. The government does not agree.

We spent an hour on scene with the patient - giving him blasts of nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and slowly persuading him to get to his feet, and then, with more analgesia, getting him to walk out to the ambulance. Also nurses, like the rest of us, can have 'bad days', but two of them?

What my publishers and I thought would be nice, would be a competition to name the new book. All you have to do is send an email to competition@randomreality.org with your name, your suggestion and a valid return email address- the closing date is midnight on Sunday 16th December**.

Barely one day into the Virtual worlds forum and I'm writing about 'Time Until Penis' and 'Dildo In The Room'. Good job I'm back at work on Saturday. Normalcy.

I tell her off for not wearing her alarm, and remind her that we are more than happy to come around her place should she get into trouble. I've known elderly patients who have fallen over at night, then not pressed the button until gone 8am. I'll miss them when they are all gone.

My brother and mother are off on (another) holiday to Miami, this means that they have the full 'collection' of all the 'C.S.I.' cities. I can't go because not enough of you bought my book *. I hope you are all happy. This means cycling down to their place every day, as I can't afford the petrol.
