Grim Fandango is on Switch. Best £10 I've spent in a long while. I'd love DOTT as well, but what can ya do!?

God help you if it spreads to your lungs as well. I had a patient who still needs ventilator support to this day (trachy, obviously), 10 years, he can talk and move his hands and feet now, but lungs don't like being mechanically ventilated for so long. He'll never be without it. Now THAT, is expensive!

I've also had some very minor GBS patients as well, and some that haven't survived when it progressed to the lungs, it's such a lottery.

I'd argue that at no point do you need to walk miles through an old tunnel to evacuate, in fact at many points it's barely metres.

The longest gap between stations is up on the metropolitan line and that's just under 4 miles, so if you break down exactly between the 2, you still are only walking under 2 miles to get to the nearest station, and not through tunnel either (not entirely anyway, I don't use this line, there's probably a few small tunnels, but I imagine there are ways to exit the line without having to walk to a station...). I'm not saying people should be left to fend for themselves necessarily, the public are idiots for the most part, but I think many people would be able to walk the very short distance between stations in Central London where most of the tunnels are, What's Covent Garden to Leicester Square? 200m? if that? And it's not in pitch dark, there are lights.

Edit. And there is no way a driver is carrying a severely disabled person to safety either, ya'll love your strikes too much for that kind of hard work to be enforced on you! So I don't like that argument either. If the train breaks down in a tunnel, you need more than 1 member of staff to get them out, so they're going to have to wait, driver or no.
