Fire, police or ambulance?” http://allthatcomeswithit.com/archives/155 Tue, 06 Jan 2009 11:14:04 +0000 http://wordpress.org/ By: Dan http://allthatcomeswithit.com/archives/155#comment-225 Dan Wed, 04 Oct 2006 18:32:13 +0000 http://allthatcomeswithit.com/?p=155#comment-225 I was working at the time, but I was just driving past on my way somewhere else and spotted the guy laying prone on the pavement. It could have been anyone who had intervened. If I had been your average passer-by on the street, what I wrote above would be all that I knew. There was nothing about it in the news or in the papers. Because I have access to things like the A&E admissions records and various medical notes I do have a bit of an idea what we stumbled into the middle of, but as all that stuff is confidential I don't really feel comfortable blogging about it. Made an interesting end to my shift that day anyway. I was working at the time, but I was just driving past on my way somewhere else and spotted the guy laying prone on the pavement.

I've waited for someone to ask but so far no one has. What the hell happened? Why were you there? What was the nature of the dangerous situation? What was the resolution? Aren't you afraid of fondling a stranger's earlobe? I have more, but I suppose they can wait. Okay. I’ve waited for someone to ask but so far no one has.

They are in continual contact with the ambulance crews so they must have known what was going on. It’s a good job I wasn’t stabbed to death or I might have had to write a strong letter to the Times.
