Called out. </p> <p>The best one was the 5mins before you go home and a PTS rings in except they get lost on the way to the pactice and it&#39;s 2 hours before you go home.

As they say these things are sent to try you! I remember a time when weekends at work had been relatively dead for ages. Then the weekend that muggins is on I had an emergency splenectomy, a ruptured pyometra, a foreign body, a haemophylliac cat rta, a dog rta and a gdv for good measure. All needed intensive care, dont think i got much down time that weekend!!!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>On a positive note, all my weekends since have seemed a breeze!! And I think I learned loads.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Hope your nights havent got any worse!!</p> <p>Emma</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
