Come In Sunday Post, Your Plane Has Been Cleared for Landing

I have a confession to make. I read the Sunday Post.

Right, that wasn't as painful as I thought. C'mon, it's got The Broons, Oor Wullie and a decent political round up. And Francis Gay. On second thoughts, let's not go there.

But yesterday Homer nodded, or at least the editor doing the editoral was snoozing. He was making a comment on the EWTD directive coming into force, making weeks of more than 48 hours illegal. He said that it shouldn't be 'rushed into'.

Yes, you're quite right. The EWTD directive was agreed on in 1993. Our government and the medical colleges have had 16 years to prepare for this. Instead they have given us nurse practitioners and MMC.

Hell-o-o-o-o?
