I was going to post this in that other recent attack at the train station thread, but someone was injured (a fall and not an assault) on Dalberg Road the other night, and were lying in the street unnoticed for an hour. The ambulance service then took another hour to turn up, with an ambulance passing on to another call during that time.

Apparently the Kings Hospital service was overwhelmed.

I'm ready to brave the elements in the quest for BEER and FUN. It is, after all, Thursday night, and that's known locally as "Local's night."

Brixton Social Club was well busy (outside) when I passed at 9.00pm. Strange weather to be standing outside in
 
Have I not told you? We have twins living opposite with their parents. They are probably about 20. One of them (still not sure which) has a guy who comes round and attempts to woo her. He appears to not be allowed in the house.... Sometimes they let the dog out to sit with him, but mostly one or both of the twins smoke a fag out of the upstairs window (occasionally they have phone conversations with other people at the same time). He has started making her (them?!) mix tapes now, that he plays on his car stereo. It's all quite entertaining
 
Fuck. Just got the 322 back from Brixton because of the biblical rain and a youngish guy got on who was bleeding from a cut on his eye. He seemed really disorientated and didn't do the oyster thing so I asked him where he was going/lived etc. I don't know if he was drunk or in shock or both but he didn't seem to really know. Eventually he said he lived in Tulse Hillbut I couldn't establish where. My stop was fast approaching but I really didn't want to leave him in the state he was. Luckily another guy further down the bus came forward to say he was going to Tulse Hill and would help him.

But now I feel guilty and worried that I should have taken him to A&E or called an ambulance or something. But there's no one at home ATM and I didn't know him from Adam and I couldn't drive to King's because I've had a few drinks. Fuck.

Ah, how romantic

















NOT :D
 
I also asked him if someone had attacked him or if he'd fallen over and he couldn't answer. Stressed now and can't sleep.

Well maybe the guy who took over from you will decide he's in maybe a worse state and do it. The fact that he came forward means it doesn't sound like he's going to totally abandon him - hopefully

You did the right thing and left him with someone else who was going to help him. You didn't abandon him, you passed on responsibility to someone else in a position to help
