The Silly Season

It's 5am .......2 hours to go on a Saturday nightshift. "Silly Season" is in full swing and every year it seems to get worse.
People just don't seem to know when enough is enough where alcohol is concerned.
If l had a pound for everyone who has allegedly had their drink spiked, Bill Gates would be coming to me for a loan.

What people don't realise however is that there are consequences to their actions, maybe if they were aware that there are only a certain amount of Ambulances available particularly during the night and that when my colleagues and I are "babysitting" people who are intoxicated we can't be with the genuinely ill.

Maybe the only way this would sink in would be if their family needed an Ambulance and none were available.

Christmas parties are a great idea, we all work hard and deserve a night out with friends. .......but let's be a bit more careful and take responsibility for your own wellbeing because do you really want to waken up in hospital with a hangover and start wondering who suffered because of your stupidity.
