New life tip - never, ever make a doctor's appointment late in the day. I'd never thought of this (trips to the medicine man are thankfully rare). If you book an appointment at 17:15, you sit in the waiting room with a lot of ill people for the full cumulative effect of a whole day of a late-running surgery. Then all the people who've been umming and aahing all day as to whether to see a doctor come rolling in. And because they've made an 'emergency' appointment, get seen first. I was sat in that waiting room listening to screaming kids (and their echoes as there's currently no carpet due to flood damage) for an hour.
Here's the actual exchange once I got to see the quack:
Doc: "Good afternoon. What can I do for you?"
Me: "I think my nose may be broken"
Doc: "It looks it"
3 maybe 4 seconds.
So I've got an appointment at the ENT Clinic in December to see about correcting it.
