Certainly me and daughter. But if her mum comes home again like she did last night in the most foul of tempers she'll be left at home peeling spuds.

She did have a case - she's just started an 8 day day shift and discovered that one of her child patients who had a breather pipe inserted into his lung had been left for 3 days with the puncture not properly sealed. Result - instead of venting it was leaking into both the child's skin and inflating that region with small "blister pack bubbles" plus leaking into the open air increasing risk of infection, and obviously the child was not receiving the benefit of the procedure (collapsed lung still partially collapsed.) Naturally she "vented" her displeasure on both the nursing staff and the assistant duty doctor.

Then came home and vented on partner and daughter. So Rowena and I said anymore of that and you'll not be coming on holiday
