NN: I had an appointment at The National Hospital, Queen Square for my annual review at 15.45 19/5/2015.
NN: I booked a taxi for 14:35 to take me there.
GN: The taxi arrived on time
NN: The meter failed after a few miles. I told the driver, who said he was taking the cab to be fixed after he'd dropped me.
BN: The taxi 'died' at Russell Square. It would not budge an inch.
GN: It was close enough to our destination to walk, so David pushed me to Queen Square.
GN: I was seen on time.
?GN: My regular consultant was on maternity leave so I was seen by a locum.
BN: They have remolished the clinic and there is not enough space for wheelchairs.
NN: I needed a blood test so Consultant gave me a form.
BN: The patient's name on the form was Kenneth **** whoops!
NN: After clinic, I used the loo.
BN: Nothing happened when I pressed the small flush button or the big flush button repeatedly. We reported this to clinic staff.
NN: We had time to kill as I had a meeting to chair a couple of miles away at 18.30.
BN: There was a voicemail message from the burglar alarm people to say my alarm had activated.
GN: From the timing, I reckoned there would not have been any intrusion as it was at the time were leaving the house.
GN: We had nice salads at Prêt A Manger.
NN: David thought he'd push me the two miles to my meeting.
BN: We passed the taxi that had died; it had still not budged after two hours though the AA was in attendance. Chatted briefly with driver (a regular).
BN: Alarm company rang to say alarm had briefly activated again...
