As for being admitted to hospital and things getting stolen, I guess
anything pocketable of value is fair game.

My local hospital provided a locker for things like your phone etc,
when having day surgery.


I'd rather hoped that would be the case. Andrew was being a tad alarmist.

I was actually quite impressed. They put bar code stickers on things like
your specs if you wished to wear them for as long as possible before going
under the knife. Everything else went in the locker.

In a vast place like the average hospital with all and sundry likely to be
there, it would be surprising if there wasn't some pilfering. So it makes
sense to only take the bare essentials with you. You don't actually need a
gold Rolex or diamond necklace in hospital.
