Think this one is a CANCELLED

I’d arrest Wayne if he didn’t have those items on his plane.

Same
 I can goto the doctors that day or receive a home call if I cannot make it for no cost and receive ALL medication for free or if I’m really bad I can get a free Ambulance service and a bed for the duration of my stay in 1 off the most modern hospitals anywhere in the world.

Caledonian ftw🌍

Oh I forgot
 We’re also connected to 1 of the best medical University’s in the West that has produced some of the highest quality specialist in the world to date.

They trained Americans for what it’s worth
 :ok_hand:

Costs me 20 bucks.

Deduction used later. So, basically a rounding error.

I’ve probably mentioned before but my younger daughter has something of a boyfriend in England. Accents are a constant subject of jokes. No matter how good an attempt at an English accent sounds to us, it sounds hilarious to him, and likewise, his attempt at 'Murican is pretty funny.

Basically 20 bucks
 :point_up_2:

Ah, must be why everyone is clamoring to get there!

That’s what’s upsetting my mother, because the Chinese and Americans visit regularly


I think that’s what swayed her vote last year

One of his earliest contributions while at the Royal Infirmary, in 1877, was in orthopaedics, by means of the development of the first bone grafts, but also in knee surgery using a special instrument (Macewen’s osteotome) both techniques becoming key treatments for the highly prevalent disease of rickets (caused by a lack of Vitamin D). Macewen was interested in the biology of bone and carried out a classical series of experiments on animals in order to determine how bones grow and may be repaired. He developed surgical treatments for mastoid disease and pyogenic cysts of the temporal bone and has identified an anatomical structure in this bone, the foveola suprameatica, which was named MacEwen’s triangle in his honour.

His method of surgical removal of lungs became a major medical weapon in the treatment of tuberculosis and lung cancer, thus saving many patients. His name was also immortalised in Medicine in two other instances: the Macewen’s operation for inguinal hernia and the Macewen’s sign for hydrocephalus and brain abscess.

Another important contribution by Macewen to modern surgery was the technique of endotracheal anaesthesia with the help of orotracheal intubation, which he described in 1880, and still in use today.

Macewen was noted for his early and creative use of photographs for documenting patients cases and for teaching surgery and medicine. He pioneered the use of photos of body parts and pathological specimens, as well as photos taken before, after and during treatment/surgery.

Just a couple of our not so famous Dr’s
 Who pioneered the medical profession in the UK.

For a country that sure is small, we sure do punch above our weight.

He probably just sucks at accents. We all grew up watching your movies and TV shows, we have way, way more practice generally. Think that’s why British and Irish actors do so much better in American roles than vice versa.

Maybe you all just 'tink your good at it.
