Slowlycatchymonkey Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 @Tango there are some interesting studies on how the substandard sleep and nutrition you get in hospitals effects recovery. Huge efforts were made back in the 90's to increase the nutritional value and diversity of foods and keep wards quiet at night but it proved impossible to achieve any significant impact, thats when further studies concluded you recover faster, better with less infection risk at home and started discharging people much faster. Since then the motivation for fast discharge has changed but I don't want to get into that minefield 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yen_powell Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Don't know if I mentioned it, but I actually rode through two speed traps on my way home from Norfolk a few weeks ago. The first one was in the smallest hamlet ever, 30mph limit (signed, not street lit), a lady with a laser/camera thingy on a tripod on a little triangle of grass around a blind bend. I was pretty sure I wasn't speeding, but she spun the camera to film my number plate as I passed her which was a bit sus'. It was such a quiet location that there were no other vehicles to be seen. That was in Norfolk, she was done up in Policy type clothes rather than safety camera civilian gear. The second one was on the approaches to northern Sudbury (Suffolk) a little while later. Same clothing (I think Suffolk and Norfolk share a Police force) this time I was just filmed from the front. Anyway, the reason I mention it is that today is 14 days since then so I am in the clear. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
