a youngster was thought might be suffering from the disease which can be checked by pressing a tumbler over spots to see if they disappeared. Is it meningitis?
At around midnight the parents finally called 999 and an ambulance was promised to take the boy to the RUH. It was over two hours in arriving as the driver had to come up from Minehead and was not familiar with the district. There was difficulty in locating the property owing to confusion over the street name and there was no help from the post code. I am keen on getting the three remaining roads in this village issued with house numbering schemes so that with a clear display at the front of each property the driver would be able to come quickly to the right place.
