In fairness I'd be happy to get a bed. This is Ireland after all.

Well let's not get onto the topic of bed blockers. That's a massive issue but for another day.

Well la di dah

There's nothing lah di da about Beacon, it's used for public medicine. I wasn't enjoying myself for the many weeks I spent there, the food was a small compensation for the negative aspects.

This is what happens when a whole generation is reared on fast food takeaways, fish fingers, pizza, burgers, chicken dippers etc.

All these complainers need a sachet of MSG alongside the salt and pepper and they'll be grand.

I cringe listening to these people. Half the world is hungry. Kids in some parts of the world have to walk miles for water. These whingers are really getting under my skin.

If the food doesn't suit them in the hospital instead of sending out for takeaways, have someone steam a few vegetables, a piece steak or fish and bring it in.

Even a nice piece of steak, lamb or fish would be too bland for this lot.

This sounds like a man who would horse into the leftovers from the patient next to him

As I posted before, it's greatly used for public medicine.

From what i've seen in most places....unfortunately, you get what you pay for in most facilities.

My limited experience in hospitals is of staff canteens and the food was deplorable. Good, healthy food should be a prerequisite of any properly run hospital.

I had to bring a carvery dinner up to my mother in law up in Connolly hospital due to how bad the meals were, she only ate half of it and the.lady beside her finished it off

archfi

So, it depends on the hospital and how sh→it it's run foodwise.
What's the scores so far

Bad/Really Bad/Obnoxious:
Vincent's

Ok/Edible/Gowgeous:
Connolly's

McGinniesta

This oul wan was on before to tell us how great her life is in cannes.

leath_dub

Is this the one with "The beautiful apartment in Blackrock" again?

Larbre34

What makes me laugh is this C saying she spent 900 quid on takeaways over a few months, she couldn've bought a decent health insurance plan with that and gone private!! I've always found the food in Vincents private to be very decent.

And the naivety of doing this while IN the bleeding hospital. I don't know what she had for dinner last night but shes getting a snotser surprise tonight for damn certain. Maybe even a cum pudding for afters.
