Field hospital for London drunks |
2006-12-22 |
A field hospital is to be set up in the financial district of London to cope with expected casualties of drunken revelry. The bankers and traders based in the City of London begin their Christmas break today, many flush with some enormous end-of-year bonuses. The London Ambulance Service will position a mobile treatment unit at Finsbury Circus. The ambulance service estimates the cost of people ringing 999 (the UK emergency services phone number) when they are drunk is £18 million ($45.14 million) per year. |
