Paperclip news:
"The National Audit Office looked at how hospitals purchased 66,000 products, from nurses' uniforms and bandages to paper clips. It found some hospitals are paying more than they need to."

Alt q: "wtf is this, links?"

I had to hear this groundbreaking news through a press release in my place of work rather than through our own b3tan insider.

Are you suggesting Chompy has infiltrated the NHS to overcharge them on paperclips?
How's the sproglet? I have one on the way in August, I'm terribly excited/terrified.

She's doing well. I like her.
It's manageable now. First couple of months were hell. I'd say "prepare yourself" but it's nigh on impossible to prepare yourself. Instead, just keep thinking "it'll get better" and then somehow it does.

Wise words...luckily i can survive on fairly small amonts of sleep

Tell your husband to stop wanking on camera and posting it then

Better that he's wanking rather than impregnating me.

I'm going to go over there right now and see what's happening.

I think Tesco should run the NHS they would force down the price of supplies in no time

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Thu 3 Feb 2011, 17:06, Reply)

They honestly could
but the main problem that at the DH level its more of a political career rather than an actual buisness.

We're at the cutting edge of stationery developments here.
We should have some kind of rolling news channel sponsored by W H Smith.

Trouble is, a lot of the 'cheap' stuff is a false economy.
My trust recently saved 33% on going to cheaper rubbish bags for clinical waste bins.

Trouble is, the bags are so shit, you need to pub two liners in a bin or risk the cunts splitting with the net result that MORE is now spent on cheaper stuff.

thats a good point
But if every hospital bought all toilet paper for 5 years from one company you could get the posh quieted stuff for the same price as the cheap shit stuff.
