 One of my goddaughters has just podded (prematurely) and the hospital
(Chelsea and Westminster) managed to give young George one of their
home-brewed ward infections. As he was in intensive care at the time it says
something extra about the ubiquity of their bugs.

One would like to think that the NHS spent more time, consideration and
money on simple cleanliness than it does on inspecting baby seats and other
such trivia, which are none of its business, while demonstrably failing in
one (only one?) of its core concerns.
