    Yeah. Hope she's good at 'hands on' therapy.

    A friend of mine was stuck in hospital for a few months once. He made good friends with a particular nurse.

    Let's just say he felt pretty satisfied most of the time.

    You gotta love and praise the NHS.

    Lol - are you *sure* it wasn't simply wishful thinking on his part? After all, if the nurse was female, it's one of the ultimate male fantasies, so he was probably tugging yer chain [no pun intended]...

    Sack-able offence however, if proved true. I'd have asked for some video evidence, to confirm it. Not that I'd have wanted a copy, though

    Marco.
    Nope I'm 100% sure about this. It was ages ago, early 80s. I knew and know David well and his abilities to be charming to the opposite sex.

    He was in due to major reconstruction after a motor bike accident. I visited him in hospital regularly.

    No video recording. Thank goodness!
