Consultant, had a ten m<strong>in</strong>ute chat <strong>with</strong> me at <strong>the</strong> ward<br />

round on Friday, left my medication at 100mg depot every<br />

fortnight, due that same day, <strong>with</strong> <strong>the</strong> usual 1200 mg<br />

lithium at night, and gave me half an hour of escorted<br />

leave. A week later that amount of escorted leave was<br />

doubled to one hour, and I was taken <strong>with</strong> ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />

patient, from <strong>the</strong> West Midlands, who like lots of <strong>the</strong><br />

patients was very manic, to admire <strong>the</strong> large local pet<br />

shop. However, I only just scraped <strong>in</strong> twenty m<strong>in</strong>utes of<br />

my leave that even<strong>in</strong>g <strong>after</strong> repeated requests to take it.<br />

Until a k<strong>in</strong>d black nurse called Felix took me to <strong>the</strong> bank<br />

mach<strong>in</strong>e down Blackheath hill, and luckily I thought ‘leave<br />

looks hard to take here!’ and as it turned out I got no<br />

leave for several days <strong>after</strong> that. So I stocked up <strong>with</strong> a<br />

large supply of tobacco and enough soft dr<strong>in</strong>ks for several<br />

days. This lasted until I started gett<strong>in</strong>g properly given<br />

leave as late as <strong>the</strong> <strong>next</strong> Tuesday, <strong>the</strong> <strong>next</strong> ward round,<br />

and compla<strong>in</strong>ed enough about my last several days <strong>with</strong><br />

no leave despite it be<strong>in</strong>g given on Friday. Every few days<br />

we did art <strong>the</strong>rapy, and that first Friday <strong>in</strong>volved pa<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g<br />

designs on t-shirts. My own design, of my college chapel,<br />

was on display as <strong>the</strong> ‘best effort’ <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> meet<strong>in</strong>g room<br />

dur<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> ward round that same first Friday <strong>after</strong>noon,<br />

and caught <strong>the</strong> doctors’ eyes. They thought I was a good<br />

artist!<br />

5. I had been made a Professor by Helen-Marie under an<br />

Italian Law <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> course of ‘Doctor Police!’ and later chose<br />

‘Power Eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g’ as my subject! So for <strong>the</strong> first time, I<br />

decided to make a nurse <strong>the</strong>re a Professor too! I duly<br />

called this black German charge nurse, Osric, ‘Professor’<br />

or ‘Herrn Professor’ for twenty four hours – <strong>the</strong>n told him<br />

– “Jetzt bist du Herrn Professor von<br />

Hauptkrankenbruderkeit”! (Now you are a Professor of<br />

‘be<strong>in</strong>g a male charge nurse’!!!)<br />

6. The smok<strong>in</strong>g room seemed to be strangely placed – at <strong>the</strong><br />

far end of <strong>the</strong> long corridor compris<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> ward from <strong>the</strong><br />

office and most nurses – until I soon guessed that <strong>the</strong> two<br />

large convex mirrors at <strong>the</strong> top upper corners at <strong>the</strong> far<br />

end from <strong>the</strong> door of <strong>the</strong> smok<strong>in</strong>g room – must have<br />

hidden cameras! I put this <strong>the</strong>ory to <strong>the</strong> test <strong>in</strong> a blatant<br />

way, and turn<strong>in</strong>g away from <strong>the</strong> cameras once alone <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
