Dennis is okay. He has a certain drunken old chuffer charm... Is he still alive or is he dead already?
Got radio on, they keep updating which members of royal family are visiting Phil, seems a bit tasteless that our media never learns what is important or appropriate- a son visits his dad who's just had heart surgery on Christmas eve... it's just not on, even if they are royals.

Went years ago
Having stent inserted is fairly routine surgery these days. I am guessing, perhaps unfairly, that Phil has jumped the queue rather than being treated as a medical emergency.
Either way I find it pathetic that our media think this the biggest news story of the day.
Helicopters provided for all visitors! they must know how tough it is to park at the hospital.
I wonder what the parking charges are for helicopters...
They're the Royal family! They're priveleged, get over it. They're not going to go on a flipping bus.
