# that is indeed true
:D

i dont know why people complain about the NHS, at least its 'free'*, if you want a higher standard of health care, pay for it!


*albeit a small amount of 'national insurance tax'

# This^^^^
People may well complain about it, but the fact of the matter is that we do have one of the best healthcare systems in the world, if not the best and some of the best doctors in the world, for free :D

# It would be great
if you never had to leave Meissen or Heidelburg except to go to Lübeck or Rostock for a holiday.
That's a Germany I could live in quite easily.

# The NHS does amazingly well with the money it's given
Or at least, the bit that my mum works for does- she makes things stretch as much as she can, bless her.

# Stretching things as much as possible sounds like the problem I had
6'6" bloke strapped to a stretcher designed for someone a maximum of 5'9. I don't know which was more uncomfortable, the car crash or the ambulance ride to A&E.
