The health lottery

My local shop has a sign outside that says 'the health lottery. Play here'

I hope this isn't a reference to any of their varied edible delicacies.

Could make a killing at kabab shops.

The small print, in case you don't get a chance to read it:

The Health Lottery: Contact your GP today, you may win one of the following prizes in hospital:

- A doctor who can understand more than one word in three of the English language
- A hospital stay without catching an unnecessary infection
- A nurse who doesn't remind you at least once a minute that she has a degree while complaining that changing your bandage is beneath her
- A wheelchair ride through the private part of the hospital where you're shown what you could afford if you weren't ill
- A debilitating illness that allows you to sue for at least £1m

There is also a special prize for those living in Inner London where you're given the choice between a clean bed or food that hasn't been spat in by the immigrant consultant neurosurgeon who is having to work as a hospital porter because he can't get a certification.

All yours for your national insurance payments. (Purchase not necessary if you've never had a job)

Its owned by a Mr R. Desmond. That should give you a good idea of its likely success rate. Wait for adverts to only appear on C5 and the Express ala Big Brother news stories this time around.
