If I was unfortunate enough to have to stay in hospital, I'd take a smart
phone or tablet.


"If I were", I mean. Bloody grammar.


Is she in hospital too?

Would you still have it when you come out though?


It would probably have a virus and someone else's battery.

If you took the smart 'phone down the same hole as the tablets go down,
then your stay would be prolonged. g


Well spotted. :-)

Or as the consultant told my wife when she complained he must have
left a knife in her knee as it was stll painfull well after a
replacement op "Don't worry it will soon rust away". To be fair we did
know him fairly well :-)

No, I mean "telly" instead of "television". It's like they're talking

I seem to remember that Hospedia acutally use "telly" in their HCI.
