The Nurse provides an antidote to the Chief Surgeon’s uber-gloomy post

Regular readers will know that The Nurse isn’t known for her cheery attitude. Which is fair enough. You’d be hard pressed to be cheery yourself if you were banged up in this shithole. Her Majesty’s Pleasure, my arse. Suffice it to say that today The Nurse is cold, damp and very, very bored.

But the Chief Surgeon’s last post takes the biscuit. Even at her lowest, The Nurse is seldom that gloomy.

Eager to make amends, The Nurse gets her photo’ collection up on screen (this tiny little Dell laptop is marvellously easy to hide from the Screws) and chooses her favourite.

Sometimes it is easier to express big emotions and concepts in pictures rather than words, even though The Nurse fancies herself as fairly fluid of pen. This is one of those times.

The Nurse has a scattering of loyal friends who are still – amazingly – loose in the outside world, one of whom owns these two delightful little orange beasts. The charmingly feisty Ms Edwards’ cats are avid telly fans, and they’re particularly fond of Garfield. 

Don’t trouble yourselves about the ailing economy and failing environment. Give yourself a break and concentrate on these kittens instead. They’ll make you feel much better.

Have you smiled yet? Jolly good. Job done.
