A shamed Health Minister was forced to admit that they had mislaid one: 'Not only have we failed to provide any new services, it transpires that the Royal Hospital, Wolverhampton, has been replaced by a Primark.
'It's not that we've lost it, it's just not where we left it. We've looked in all the usual places and retraced our steps. Quite frankly, we're beginning to doubt there was a hospital at all.
'Possibly it was swallowed by a sink hole or stolen by teenagers? It seems to have disappeared just at the same time all the NHS funding we promised disappeared. It's very frustrating, if we can't find it, how are we meant to sell it off?'
The Junior Doctors' strike means many are actually getting a full night's sleep and have reconnected with friends and family they haven't seen for years.
One said 'My eyes have adjusted to sickly hospital strip lighting. Normal daylight gives me headaches. Unfortunately I can't prescribe myself the good gear because I ain't no scab - little medical joke there. The over-the-counter stuff is much less over-the-rainbow.
'Also I'd forgotten you could feel rested and not veer from shift to shift in a constant state of existential horror. I've been home! It turns out I have a nephew! He is 8. I also have a now ex girlfriend - turns out she left me several years ago.'
