My girlfriend recently went to hospital after collapsing at work. Once there they went through the regular "do you take drugs" "what drugs do u take". She was honest and replied she enjoys a couple of scoobs in the evening. So anyway, after a headscan they found she had a slightly fractured skull and would have to stay overnight. As we were getting settled in her room, the drugs and alcohol advisor ( a middle aged woman wearing too much make-up and too little clothing) arrived for a "chat".
