Walking my dog through a cloud of haymaking dust in a field yesterday an irritating speck entered my eye. This morning it has clearly caused a swelling/stye and nasty infection inside my lower lid so I'll have to ask the chemist for advice as my local health centre won't be open til Monday and in any case, if I need one I'd probably not get an appointment for a couple of days.
My point is that it seems bizarre that if it was my dog I'd be able to take him to my vet today. I know I'd have to pay for that private service but then I do get seen (eventually) with the NHS through my taxes, which I pay every month whether I need the service or not (or whether I've ever contributed or not).
Just sayin' like.
