I had the same question when I last had a trip to A&E.
I happen to live in Derbyshire, but on the Nottinghamshire border. Nottinghams Queens Medical Centre is about ten minutes drive away, Derby's hospital is about thirty minutes. The choice seemed logical to me, but I suppose it was nice to have the option.

One thing that I have noticed between Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire is the price of fuel. For example, Petrol from a Nottingham Texaco is presently £1.38 a litre, yet in Derby it costs £1.32. It rarely dips below the £1.30 mark, but the difference still surpises me.

Surely it can't be sensible selling petrol in Derby cheaply given their recent form?
