Normal service is now resumed

So the new Dutch health insurance scheme has just been explained to the Norfolk Dumpling. Basic message: you pay more, you get exactly what you have now - or less - and this is called freedom of choice. No doubt, it will still be a struggle to get a smear test ("it's not an interesting cancer" as one doctor told me). If you have kids, forget about pain relief for child birth but it does look like they'll be able to get cosmetic surgery. So that means no more ugly children? Bargain!

I really want to move back to the UK. I miss my NHS.
