The scariest thing about being in hospital is the visits from vampires. They have one interest in you. Your blood. I must have given a couple of armfuls already!
But they tell me lies. They’re trying to be kind and manage my expectations, I know that. But all this PC, mustn’t offend anyone thing has gone too far. When I’m told to expect a ‘sharp scratch’, I have every right to expect a scratch... = ‘score or mark the surface’. But it’s not!
But then I guess if they’d said ‘a little prick’ then I might think they’d been looking!

Haha! That reminded me of The Young Ones when Vyvyan was going to do acupuncture on Neil and he said "You may feel a bit of a prick" and Neil responded with "So what's new?"
