I have received the following message from a consultant hospital doctor: My wife is a disabled woman with Multiple Sclerosis and I recently took her to my own hospital to be fitted with an orthotic for her weak leg. On parking on front of the hospital, in a disabled space, she remarked that the large Volvo adjacent did not display a disabled badge. I foolishly indicated to the driver, who was sitting in his car, to lower his window and politely asked him whether he was a disabled person and , if so, why he had not displayed his badge. He replied with a torrent of abuse, which included many applications of the ‘f’ word. I explained that I was a consultant at the hospital and that I thought that his behaviour was very unfair. More applications of the ‘f’Sunday, 19th October 2008
