Liverpool's NHS at the BBC with Brillo

Overheard in the Caravan:

The Chairman: "Why do they have this postcode lottery on NHS services?"

Hay: "It's not a lottery - they adapt scarce resources to the most pressing local needs. For example, in Liverpool, due to the high unemployment, you'll find more services for depression, mental health, drug dependency....."

Chairman: "....and speech therapy, if Steven Gerrard is anything to go by!"



Talking of footballers, can't say I'm impressed with Rooney's new barnett - looks like he's sporting a Brillo pad on his bonce.


I'm starting a new game - spot the spelling and grammar mistakes on the BBC news website (and they say the BBC hasn't dumbed down...).

Yesterday's contribution: "He also worked with John Lennon to turn Lennon's book, In His Own Write, in to a play which he then directed at the National Theatre."
