There's always been a few there, but rather more this year - however, not along the adjacent river bridge, though..?

God knows, but they've gone into partnership with those that run/ran County and Stoke. Up to now, we/they haven't done too bad. Had a pretty good reputation, is this going to drag St.Georges down or are they/we going to raise the standards of the County/ Stoke?Yet another name for St Georges....
I wonder how much it cost to get that logo........

It's all about perception isn't it. I had a health issue recently and from diagnosis to procedure was just 9 days, it was done at County as a day patient, I was contacted and provided all the info I needed prior to my appointment, my appt was on time, I was dealt with in a friendly and respectful manner, the procedure was a done well, I was provided more after care bumph, and I will hopefully not need to be seen again. in my limited experience the alliance between County and Stoke has provided a great patient experience

It's actually all about the fear of being taken over
So you take over the rival yourself
And whilst the people sleep one third of the budget seeps out of the NHS and into the pockets of shareholders . American stylee

A successful hospital taking over an underperforming one is not an issue for me, I'm not hung up on who runs Staffords hospital so long as it's stays in the NHS. Not sure this is the place to discuss the Conservative missions to decimate the NHS and line the pockets of their party donors really!

I'm not 100% sure that this rose in Lidl's car-park is truly inadvertent, but it certainly is not mollycoddled - It does put some effort in, though.
I do, however, fear that it may fall victim to the immensely slow road 'improvement' scheme that will, one day, pass through there.

It's being revised, with a flyover going directly over the marshes to the M6 near Hugh's windmills, incorporating a covered stadium for the rugby pitches..

Wouldn't that ipso facto be very much an 'advertent' feature rather that an 'in' so one?Yet another name for St Georges....

Whenever I hear the words “ipso facto” it reminds me of something that my husband told me years ago but still amuses me.
He was dictating a letter to a new temporary secretary, and said the words, as part of a sentence, “ipso facto”
He made the age old classic mistake of signing the letter off without thoroughly checking it for spelling or content.
Unfortunately, the temp had misheard “and ipso facto” and had typed “ and if so, fatso” to a client who was actually rather portly.
Fortunately he had a very good sense of humour.
