Civilisation

DateSaturday, August 21, 2010

I was supposed to drive to Scotland yesterday. Instead I spent the afternoon at the Emergency Care Centre at my local hospital where I was treated by a charming doctor who spoke with a strong Teutonic accent and reassured me that I was not about to die.

When I explained that I was still hoping to drive to Scotland and she laughed and said:

"Schottland? Ist zat a civilised country?"

There's no answer to that.
